Wonderin' where you went,
Looking at the time unspent.

Searching...

Waiting for your saving call,
Testing the steps before I fall.

Screaming...

Watching as I waste away,
Seeing past dreams, distant, play.

Choking...

Letting memories slip through.
Knowing nothing’s left to do.

Dying...

Hating as it disappears,
Feeling that there’s nothing near.

Letting...
Go.

The author's comments:
I actually wrote this poem a while ago. I honestly couldn't tell you what it's about, because I don't know myself. So as you read, let your mind wander. See what you get out of it, and don't let my ideas influence your own. Because I have no idea.
