Ok

There's no light in my eyes faded for so long, i cannot see the hope that was once there long ago. as these tears fall, all i can do is look around, i cannot hear the sounds of your voice coming through. But i'll be OK please don't try to follow me it's not safe to go alone there are things you shouldn't see. i'll be OK i know you must hate me just give it some time someday you will be fine just know that i'm all right. my soul grows cold like this tomb stone the darkness always falls, pitch black now i am all alone. and as i fade, i guess i'll cease to be nothing left inside i have died so you could breathe. But i'll be OK please don't try to follow me it's not safe to go alone there are things you shouldn't see. i'll be OK i know you must hate me just give it some time someday you will be fine just know that i'm all right. in my dying breathe the air rushing from my chest i guess there's nothing left, no parting shots no more time for arguments. looks in your eyes, i know you'll leave me now. our time has just run out. our time is over now! But i'll be OK please don't try to follow me it's not safe to go alone there are things you shouldn't see. i'll be OK i know you must hate me just give it some time someday you will be fine just know that i'm all right. just know that i'm all right....

I chose this poem to use as lyrics for a song I'm composing for a music theory class (I'm a music major at Cornell University). As the previous comment said, it seemed like it was meant for a song! Beautiful poetry.
