And I will walk this path so no one else has to.
I will hide this guilt so no one else has to feel
This pain and regret that should not be here.
I never quite knew how forever might feel until you left my side,
And for this, my silent mouth will stay at fault.
No one happens to know the story that these bright eyes hold.
For two complete rotations your branches have tripped me;
Leaving me to tumble to the ground.
And when the ground isn’t there to catch me,
I keep going farther down.
I have to keep falling until I can find that dagger to pierce through me,
To put me at a halt.
Now finally, your wicked limbs have let me be and put me at rest.
You have at last given up this fight.
After this long dreaded journey,
There is a smooth path you have placed for me.
Not a crack or a hole in it.
