It was drizzling and the wind had just started to pick up as he made his way through the cemetery slowly, knowing his destination.
He found the stone and stuck the flowers in the ground. He knelt down and in his sorrow he spoke…
I
hurt
myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What
have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
As he knelt there he reminisced through the years. Slowly passing through each memory he had. He would look up to the sky aimlessly, searching for some sort of answer, then look back down at the stone…
"Loving Father…"
The man smiled a bit and remembered hearing of his children and all their escapades.
Finishing the thought he continued…
You
could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I
wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
"I'm nothing, you were something…I blew it, I came back here and I blew it, you tried to help me, I'm so sorry…"
Beneath the stain of time
The feeling disappears
You are someone else
I am still right here
What
have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You
could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
As he stood up, he wiped his tears and took a few steps back, still eyeing the stone…
"If only Beej…if only…"
If
I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
The End
