A beating heart I lay bare

It is not enough to break the wall

I take that longing step into the air

But instead of floating I fall

As I fall through the stars and space

Memories of friends and family I find

Tears begin to accent my face

I weep for those I leave behind

But time stops for none and it is here for me

I close my eyes for that blissful rest

There is no use in pondering on what could be

So goodbye my friends I wish you the best

[adarkclearing]

My greatest gift,

My greatest failure.

A bottle of pills,

Only to wake the next morning.

[adarkclearing]

I am a museum,

Full of art.

But you prefer music.

[adarkclearing]

I want to make you happy,

But I’m not happy myself so I can’t.

I want to fly to the moon,

But these thoughts keep me weighed down so I can’t.

I want to cry out for help,

But this weight on my chest leaves me breathless so I can’t.

I want to keep living,

But the edge of this chair calls me so I can’t.

I just can’t.
