You are here, you are with me.

You are okay. I love you.

The words that spilt out of my mouth every day.

But your lifeless eyes only showed pain.


And every day I tried. I tried and tried to make you happy.

To make you smile.

To take the damage away.

But instead your eyes faded and darkness took over.


And that person that I thought I knew,

The one that made my world turn and the stars fall like rain

The one I couldn't help falling in love with,

Was gone.


Then came the day.

The day when my whole world shattered into a million pieces.

The day when my words caught in my throat and I choked.

The day when you vanished into thin air.


For years I tried.

I screamed out for you in my sleep.

I would wake in the night, wishing you were there.

Wished that somehow you would turn up out of the blue.


I wished that we could go back to the sea.

Where all of our troubles were washed away and we became us.

And when that day came, I forgave.

I closed my eyes, your hand in mine and dreamt of the ocean.


I could feel your tears dripping onto my face.

Your words faint and broken.

Your trembling voice singing the words,

So take my hand, and take my whole life too.
