Yall please tell me if you like what I have done with this. My aunt is doing well and may get to come home Friday! Ok everybody sit back and enjoy the show. Love always, James)
Lizzie sat on her bed looking over her notes from English. She had tried several times to start her paper but could not make herself focus. She had sat her notes down and picked up a note pad to start brainstorming on when she heard a familiar song on her stereo. She couldn't help but listen as "My Immortal" blared through her radio.
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
As the song ended Lizzie realized that she had been writing as it played. She looked down at the pad and read what she had written.
Gordo why can't you just leave? I'm trying to move on but this hurts so badly. I've been there all of these years. I was there while you were hurting over your parents. I held when you cried, I wiped away your tears. I was the one that was there while you mourned losing them. I'm still so committed to you. I just can't forget. I want to leave but you still have my heart. I've tried so to tell myself that you're gone, but you are still right there, right down the hall. I feel like I've really have been alone all of this time. I want to move on but I can't because you still have all of me.
As she read the words in front of her that had come from her heart everything came rushing back to her. Everything from growing up with him to falling for him to his parents dying to his telling Miranda he loved her went through her head. She fought off the emotions as long as she could but she finally couldn't resist any longer. She threw the notepad against her wall and collapsed on her bed crying.
