~snuff-slipknot~

In the depths of heartache, I find my pen
To capture the pain of love lost again
A soul consumed by shadows of the past
A love that slipped away, too fleeting, too fast

So, if you love me, let me go
And watch me drift away, my heart aching so
For my darkness holds me in its grasp
I cannot destroy what's already collapsed

Deliver me into the hands of fate
Alone, I walk a path of self-hate
I am unworthy of your gentle touch
My smile faded, lost in shadows clutch

I cling to your words, pressed to my lips
Cherishing memories of your sweet eclipse
A life without your light, a bleak abyss
The fight abandoned, sealed with a final kiss

In the silence of night, I mourn the loss
A poet's heart, broken, bearing the cost
Of a love that slipped through trembling hands
Leaving behind only empty sands

So, if you love me, let me go
And watch me fade into the afterglow
For I am a poet, cursed to feel
The agony of love that will never heal.
