Life Support

by Sara   Nov 4, 2005


It feels like your moving on though I know you're not,
See the color return to your cheeks, I stay in this lonely spot.
Feel you grow back into your past and our lives split,
Hear you flourish as I disintegrate, afraid I won't make it.
I've fallen apart and now your voice is my life support,
Please don't suffocate me, don't cut my life short.
You are the closest to perfect I will ever feel,
And when I'm without you each breath is never real.
Selfish when I see you and I barely make it through the day,
Selfish when you're hurt and I want to hear that it's okay.
If I tear you down I won't hurt alone, If I tear you down,
But I can't keep my head above water if we both drown.
I can't be your foundation cause I'm cracking into pebbles,
I wish I could but if only you could feel me tremble.
I want to hold you and be your yellow brick road,
But I'm not strong enough to carry both our loads.
Setting myself into my grave, as I slowly fade out,
Quietly, Silently without a shout.
