Nowhere To Go, But Down

by Lady Nik   Jun 9, 2007


I don't understand why you want to leave this world behind. To find something that was never there. You are so willing to fall and leave me here. I'm just living on a prayer and I don't know. But you don't even care, so you're letting go. Hellos can be hard, but goodbyes are harder. You just feel the need to go and leave me all alone. But you don't see what I see. Our shadows dead in the snow. Our names on our graves. You buried beside me. Our future doesn't seem so bright. You keep cutting yourself with this knife. This knife called life. I'm not ready to leave, but for you I'll die. I'm no one without you. My face will be blank. The pain will not cease until my heart breaks. Please get better because I don't know how much more I can take. Though I feign, the hurt is still on my face. But I can't heal your everlasting wounds and I can't restore what has been consumed. If you die I'll die too. So I guess the saying was true. Three strikes and you're out. I have nowhere to go, but down.
