Crashing Down

Crashing down all around me 
There’s nothing I can do 
Everything I once felt 
Is now slowly bleeding through
I can’t see anything anymore
I’m blinded by the pain
No longer can he hear my cries 
Because I’m screaming inside. 
I want to tell him I’ll never let go 
But my breath is getting weak. 
Why can’t we be together again?
Why can’t I be free?
I want him to hold me and never let me go. 
Why can’t he see this pain killing me?
Why  won’t he tell me what I want to know?
I sit and watch as forever ends. 
Watching him disappear. 
There’s so much I want to tell him 
But I know I need to stand clear.
I’m falling to an abyss of pain 
As my life crashes all around.
And there’s nothing I can do 
But let it bring me down.
