The Mistake

Please…
Please don't leave
Don't leave me here
Alone
In the dark
I want to go…
I want to go with you…
Don't leave me here
Alone
In the dark
You helped me escape
My fears, my lies, my grief
If you leave who will help me?
Please don't leave me here
Alone
In the dark
You were my light
My only path…
Why?
Why did you do it?
Why did you leave me here?
Alone
In the dark
This is why I'm here
On the floor
Knife in my hand
Will you come to save me?
No, you made your choice
And now I must suffer
You left me
Alone
In the dark
You said others would come
To help, to love, to care
And no one did
So now I'm bleeding
Where you left me
Alone
In the dark
My heart was torn when you left
Shattered, never to be healed again
The pain in my wrists are starting to go away
Why did you leave me?
Alone
In the dark
Was I not good enough for you?
Were all the moments and memories not worth it?
Or was it that I was too much of a commitment?
But that doesn't matter now…
Nothing does…
Because I'm lying here, crying, on the floor
Alone
In the dark
As my vision slips away
I see you open the door and rush to my side
Was I wrong?
I can hear you say things
Like, 'don't leave me'
And 'why did you do it'
But most of all 'I love you and I always will'
So now we are both here
Alone
In the dark
With the last of my strength
A small stream of blood pouring out of the side of my mouth
I manage to say, 'I'm so sorry' and 'please forgive me'
But the most important, 'I love you too and always will'
Then I give up my last breath
Realizing that you truly did love me
I see my mistake
And now I will guide you
From heaven, to light your path
So you aren't
Alone
In the dark
I will never leave your side
I will always protect you
Even when you don't know I'm there
And I will always love you even when time no longer exists
For our love for one another
Is eternal
