Be As It May.
January 16, 2010
Shatter the windows
to provide the glass
that makes life fade
all too fast.
A sliver here,
a sliver there,
bringing bloody tears
and pain to spare.
With oxygen short,
and light growing dim,
thoughts of the sort
are all of him.
Why is he absent?
Why did he leave?
Couldn't he see that without him,
I simply couldn't breath?
My smile cracks,
I wish I would've survived...
And as life snaps back,
I suddenly realize...I AM alive.
Maybe I don't need him,
maybe it's better this way.
So maybe this final FIN
can be as it may.
