A Collection of Poety and Other Things

It is what it says it is. Some of the stuff to be posted here will be poetry, prose, stuff that sounds like music lyrics, etc. Fair warning, some of the stuff is melancholy, so...just thought you'd want to know.

This one's called Cross the Line

I never believed I'd ever let this happen
I watch you slip away from me
Watching it go, did I do something wrong?
Some appears to have died inside

So here we are again
Crossing an invisible line
Hanging her in the nothingness, lost in time
Running but I know not why
End goal is to cross the line

You told me that friendships never die
So long as both parties remain true
I believed you until the day came
When you abandoned me too

here I walk the empty streets alone
Not even my shadow walks beside me
Devoid of thought I walk alone
Face the darkness on my own

So here we are again
Crossing an invisible line
Hanging here in the nothingness, lost in time
Running but I know not why
End goal is to cross the line

Whisper a prayer
And then let it go
I'm tired of waiting, trapped in a hellhole
You made a promise you didn't keep
In my repayment, I'll bring you sleep

I miss you ever so much
But it seems you've let me go
My heart hurts, but I'll cling to the hope
That you truly love me all the while

So here we are again
Crossing an invisible line
Hanging here in the nothingness, lost in time
Running but I know not why
End goal is to cross the line


And then, a happy opposite: This Choice

The wheel has begun to turn
The ball is rolling downhill
The decisions we've made cannot be changed
No matter how we sigh or yearn

It was hard to make this choice

I ran for you
Because I feared for you
I cried for you
Afraid you would be lost
I gave myself in place of you
To save you from the end
I died for you
To save you from a fate
Far worse than death or bitter hate

I'm not sorry
I willingly made this choice

Because of the time we spent together
Because of the times we laughed together
Because of the fun we had together
Because of the sorrows we shared together
But even all of these
Pale to the greatest reason

This choice I made
This painful, bitter choice
I made it because

I love you
