i know it’s over

(or , you can’t come back the same way u left. but u can still come back )

for lucy

me ? leave you ?

i could never do it

so i was given no choice

lifeless in my arms

like they KNEW it

would be the end of me

when everything went up in flames

right then and there

in your soul’s sacrifice

your final gift

being my entire future

rising from the ashes

of our last goodbye

without you ?

i have to do it without you now ?

one final question - i know we don’t have long

what about , stay here forever-

right here- where you belong ?

an addendum here is i was wrong

i’ll see you now in other forms

you’re in my heart - you are never all the way gone
