There was a time, when everything seemed so dire.
I was plummeting from a building, wondering why the hell I jumped.
Overwhelmed by the sorrow and longing, to have you by my side.
It was like looking at a black, black sky with no stars.
As though someone decided I was too cold to exist and buried me alive.
Taken with such surprise at the fact we were not meant to be.
And just when emptiness appeared so inevitably close,
I learned how to fly, dug my way to the surface,- beneath that shimmering sky.
Thankyou for the warmth when I was cold, thankyou for being by my side.
