Everyone and everything ends up leaving in the end.
So, what choices can we make to force them to stay?
Beautiful minutes only for a moment...
Precious moments only for a minute...
Then like water, when dried by sun, they go...
What is there, but memories wishing to forget?
And sadness boiling beneath skin?
A touch of corrosion upon the heart.
She was seemingly shattered by calamity.
A tasteless march through storage spaces of lost love and never caring enough.
Dashed with nothing but an empty veil we try to feel.
If everyone is only here for the moment.
What's the realization of allowing yourself to withstand being used by humanity?
Never forgive those who have once walked out... and try to come back.
Trust has died, and that pain is not something you can take back...
Regret means nothing when you've damaged a soul.
And to think it meant nothing to you but to move on.
Don't return now looking to tie up the broken pieces you left behind.
Sheer boredom?
To reopen gashes that left scars but have healed with phantom pain...
Your existence is a reminder of the hauntings that have plagued the heart.
Your words are like venom; your eyes lie.
You forget the idea that you drag along another soul.
Whispers of sweet goodbyes become a resting tragedy that ears hear...
Then you smile joke, and laugh at the one you brought hurt.
Redemption, forgiveness, you desire it, eh?
You forget the unforgotten...
One cannot erase pain...
