"If only..."
Words to me, crimson blood staining crimson lips, blue eyes empty and bottomless.
Then silence. If only what? I want to question, but the one who asked it is too far away.
I feel like I am falling into those eyes.
I feel like I am falling forever.
"If only..."
The words stay with me as I fall.
Friends cry to me, but their words are twisted into hers, repeating again and again.
If only.
If only we had had longer...
If only I could be with you...
If only we had been brave enough to show each other
our minds
our hearts
our souls.
If only.
But it is too late.
Now all that is left is to drown in those blue pools
The words echoing forever
Her voice, distanced, bouncing through the caverns of my mind
"If only..."
The words haunt me forever.
If only indeed.
