Theodore
For Theodore could take no more
Packing his things, leaving for good
Never looking back at the door
Saying goodbye? he never would.
He was always told what was best
For Theodore could take no more
His heart pounding out of his chest
Breaking through, feeling where it tore
He felt an ache down to his core
Silently screaming while he ran
For Theodore could take no more
Heading to where it all began
His feet over the edge, echo
Feeling the tear drops start to pour
Let it all go, or just let go?
For Theodore could take no more.
