A message to the fallen
Stop.
Turn around.
You forgot something.
Take a step back.
away from the edge.
Come back to me.
We can stay like this.
On the floor of the roof.
You just stay in my arms.
Stop apologising.
It's not your fault.
It's okay, you're still here.
That's what i would've said.
I would've held you in my arms.
If you'd only listened when i said:
Take a step back.
Away from the edge.
Come back to me.
Stop.
Turn around.
You forgot something.
I can't let you do this.
I still need you.
But you weren't listening...
