Follow You

Blood drips down my arm
I did this all for you
If you took your own life
Then I want to die too

You never said goodbye
Before you went away
I need to see you again
There’s so much left to say

Tears fall down my face
My childhood pal dead
I can no longer reach him
Words left between us unsaid

I was ignorant to his pain
Wrapped up in my own
Left him outside in the cold
He must have felt so alone

I could not save him
They found him hanging
I cannot sleep anymore
The guilt keeps banging

So I take the razor blade
Slice through my skin
Release all of the grief
I have trapped deep within

I write his name in blood
Remembering his smile
Without him here with me
Life is no longer worthwhile

Cut again across the vein
Blocking out physical hurt
Thinking of his broken body
Buried six feet under the dirt

Preparing to leave all this
I will take my final breath
I promise to not hurt him again
As I follow him into death

*** I am so sorry i did not try to save you and that i didnt see your pain, i love you forever G xxxx
