A/N: Another Osamu speaking from the dead. Lol.
Written for the 31_days challenge, May 17: "that fork in the road will bleed me like a knife"
Still Alive
Oh Ken.
Don't you know how much you hurt me,
clinging to the dead?
You can't be me.
Don't try.
Don't kill yourself.
You can't bring me back
to the surface by drowning
yourself.
You can't make me live
by halting the path
of your own future.
You're just making me watch this –
Making me watch
you destroy yourself
and destroy me
Because you made me realise
how I've been
And
how I should have been.
Especially with you.
But you can't change that Ken
so let go of the past.
Don't listen to those whispers
in your head
but your heart
Which had always been so big and warm
And bury me.
Let me rest from this
Because I can't come back.
I can't change
but while you cling to me,
I can't leave.
I can't be free.
And neither can you.
Ken, you.
Dig yourself out of my grave
and live on
And let me die.
