Why?

by //.[CrazyInLove]   Apr 20, 2006


"Why do you have to go?"
-I cry as you held that gun
To your head, what a horrible sight,
you thought it would be fun

Fun to get rid of all your problems
Like you are trying to run away
I cant believe your putting me through this
As you end your life today

You thought you dont belong,
But in my heart you do,
Why is this all happening?
I cant go on without you.

I need you by my side
for me to live my life
It's like you're killing me also
Like to my wrists-the blade of a knife

Cutting me so deeply,
as the blood touches the air
My life's memories flash before my eyes,
And think to myself-Do I dare?

But if you're leaving
I'm giving up too
I cannot simply go on
Without the love from you.

You brought me so much
And now you want to leave?
I can't even think you're going through with this
It's more than I want to believe

But the site of the gun glistens in your eye
As you start to think it over
Will the result the problems you want?
Will you ever recover?

Questions race through your head
As I bring my concentration to the knife
Sitting there, lonely on the table
Ready to take my life

I start to pick it up
As a tear falls from my eye
Gently touching the surface of my wrist
As I whisper my last goodbye's

Blading more and more skin
as time is still as can be
You throw the gun down
And reach to comfort me.

But I cannot hear you
As I cry in tears of pain
Getting more and more scared inside
As the blood drips slowly down the drain

I start to cry
As you are holding me tight
Wishing I never done such a thing
On this horror-filled night.

You tell me how much you love me
As a tear falls fast from your eye
Wondering how you put me through this
And as I slowly start to die

I took this too far
You start to hear my spirit sing...
Wishing I were still around
With all of your love yet to bring

I mean nothing now that I'm gone
As I am no longer around
Because of that sensation the knife gave me
And fell bleeding to the ground

This note is all you have left of me
So take care of it well, hold it close to your heart
While you live the rest of your life-restless
Remembering nothing can tear us apart.

"I will never forget you"
-My spirit whispers in your ear...
"I just couldn't let you take your life" I say
As you shed your final tear
