Follow You

by Emma Carnage   Apr 26, 2005


The pills are out
I'm ready to end it
I'll leave this world
The same way as you
And I'm ready now
If you don't come back
I'll swallow them all

After I finish this bottle
I'll go get another
Because this one's half empty
And I know I'll need more
If I'm going to follow behind you
As fast as I can

When I first stood up
To grab the bottle of pills
I collapsed on my way
From my beaten legs
And the tears I was sobbing
But I pulled myself up
Because if you do this
I told you I would follow
And I was not lying

You said to wait 15 minutes
And if you didn't return
That you love me
But you don't need to say that
Because we won't part
I'll follow right behind you

Time is running out now
How long has it been?
I don't even know now
So perhaps I'll just start
Take some at least
Then give it awhile
And if you don't return
I'll be right behind you

This is one promise
I know I will keep
So all my dear friends
I'm not sure yet
But I'll just say it now
This is good-bye
For the moment at least
Tell my family I love them
But you are the ones
Who have been here the whole time
So my dear friends of mine
Remember forever
That I love you so much

    Well, Emma, as much as I HATE that this poem actually came true, I am reallllly glad you are ok, tho. Oh, Emma, I don't know what I would have done if you had... well, you know. But you didn't, and I am really glad about that. This was a remarkable poem, and you are a remarkable person. Take care, Emma!!!
