I got another, but it's not like anyone is really reading them.


The Shallow End



Pronounced is my life
In front of bold eyes
Watching, as I make
My long and slow strides
Will I die this very night
Or shall I wake up
And touch the stars

Eternity, the time will not stop
Everything seems tumbled
Doors to my death
Are scattered here and there
As I take my last breath
And dive into the shallow end

Watching, waiting
The time has almost come
Will you remember me
When I have gone
Or will you forget
Like a mere Winter’s dream
Pointless in all

Forever believing
Astonishing the truth
A window to a new life
Is waiting for me
Waiting, quietly, and clear
For everything
To burst out in fear

Remember
These last and final words
As I say my good-byes
And as I fall from the sky
I promise I will touch a star for you
As I dive into the shallow end

I kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom and asked if you would accompany me in a quick fall,
but you made me realize that my ticket wasn't good for two.
I rode alone.
