Never Letting Go.

By Phoenix



Future - born
The words - sworn
The goodbyes said
Left behind
Crawling in the dark
Without a hand to call my own.

You are my everything
Don't leave me here by myself
I've not learned to cope
To get by
To do it on my own.

You,
The thread that pulls together the seam
But the thread is fraying
The cloth tattered and torn
Losing you would be ripping me apart.

Once was enough
This tattered cloth
The cloth you helped make beautiful
Would crumble under your demise.

I need you like you need me
open your mind and let me see
The part you don't want me to
Im not scared anymore.

Let me see what you don't want this life to see
The one who can remedy the pain
Let my words finally flow
I would fall apart if you were to go.
