Can I fall any farther?
Or any harder?
My heart hurts
It blames my head
My breath is short
My eyes are wet.
The pressure in my head builds,
I feel alone in black oblivion.
Watching you walk, is nothing, like how it was to see you run.
You tumbled,
You didn't know, but we did it together.
One, right after the other.
When you went on your way
I let you go,
I let you forget,
And now I struggle to do the same.
I'm not a fighter.
But for you I wish I was.
