The Price Of Perfection

18 4 2
                                    

Hiding in the moonlight,
Away from everyone's sight,
I lay in the dark alley
As my soul leaves my stabbed body.

With the company of
The broken cake and
The red-painted yellow petals,
I reached out my hand to someone,
Remembering I had long lost my salvation.

When did things start to go wrong?
I can't remember at all.
But it's a fact that
It was all my fault.

The desire for the spotlight
Made me lose my light.
My reward for achieving perfection
Was this miserable life.

I didn't believe in miracles,
But I hoped for one.
Surprisingly, the miracle came
Disguised as my death.
I realized it
When I woke up in my old bed.

I promise I am not the same.
The past me has already died.
After returning to the past,
I just want to make everything right.

But I have one wish
That only you all can fulfill.
I won't ask for anything again,
Just fulfill this precious request:

Please, just stay alive.
