lastly.

you wish you didn't feel it anymore,
thinking that it's better if you just died.
why can't you just push it all out the door?
you say to yourself when you have just cried.

you know if your heart is buried in snow,
of course you know how long that you have fought,
but only you know how far you will go.
and you remember when you heart was caught.

you see it's really not that effortless.
and all you could want is to be better.
most people seem to think that it's painless,
but you already have wrote that letter.

and so you say goodbye to everyone,
because you realize that you are so done.
