My amazing ideas
My mind was set
On clean and perfect

Sweet smile
Brightness in my eyes
In dark and quiet places
No one ever saw
The many
Lip-locked seconds we stole

Whispered words of love
Tickling my ear
Those sugar sweet feelings
I was flying so high

A small misstep
The light extinguished
Again
I was the only one
who took the fall

No everything is gone
The darkest hole
Buried so deep
My bones will forever lie
Tangled together
Here, in this broken heap
