1. Denial
They're lying to me right?
You're just playing a trick on me right?
I'll go to bed and wake up, and you'll be here beside me right?
Right?
Tell me I'm right.
Tell me.
Tell.
Where did you go?
Why aren't you here?
This must be a dream, a mistake, a blunder, some sort of twisted imagination.
This can't be my reality.
Because if you aren't here, there's nothing to keep me grounded in reality anymore.
So please open your eyes, it's time to wake up.
Please.
I know you're just asleep.
Right?
2. Anger
I hate you.
You broke all your promises and left me.
You once said you'd carry the weight of the world with me, but now I'm the only one carrying this burden on my shoulders.
The sky seems just a little heavier.
Why?
Why did you leave?
Why?!
Why me?
I hate you I hate you I hate you I hate me I hate me I hate me I hate me I hate me
I ran faster than I ever did but it was not enough, I prayed harder than I ever did but it was not enough, I hoped stronger than I ever did but it was not enough.
Not enough to make you stay.
Not even enough to see you one last time.
I'm sorry I failed you.
I'm sorry I couldn't save you.
I tried more than I ever did but it was not enough.
Do you hate me?
Because I hate me too.
3. Bargaining
One last chance.
One last glance.
One last touch.
One last time.
I'm begging the heavens.
More time, I need more time, we need more time.
Just a little longer...
4. Depression
It hurts.
There's a empty space in my heart, as if someone had shot me , but somehow, I'm still alive.
Yet the wound isn't healing.
The only one that can heal it is you.
But you aren't here.
You never will be again.
There's a unexplainable ache in my body, craving for something, calling for something, longing for something.
I cry.
For you, for me, for us.
For our unfulfilled vow by the altar.
You've become something I can't reach.
5. Acceptance
I don't want to lie to myself anymore.
You're gone, and that's the painful reality.
And maybe someday I'll be able to move on, but until then, I'll visit you every sunday, and lay roses onto the stone cold slab in front of you as I reminisce about the things we'll never do.
I won't ever forget you.
As long as I'm breathing, even if this world ends, I'll keep your memory alive.
I'll keep you in my chest.
Letting go isn't a option.
They say holding on hurts, but I'll hold on to the best of us, I'll hold on to the laughter and smiles, I'll hold on to the little moments that made my heart race.
We might not stand on the same earth anymore, but you'll always be right here beside me, in my heart.
