Remember

Drop the ribbon now

Watch it fly away

On the frigid breeze

Empty now of everything.

I can't go on

Not another step

When I opened my hand,

I lost my most precious part.

I'm so broken

Bleeding out on

The cold stone of ground

Looking up at the sky.

Wishing for a

Place to rest my head

And aching heart

Wandering for miles

On end

Going nowhere

Left in the rain.

Can anyone find me

Crying in the shadows?

Will they call to me

Or will I fall apart?

I'm so scared to try

But even if I do

Where will I go?

Token falls from my fingers

Gold now tarnished bronze

My reflection is marred and faded

In its dull gleam.

I just fall down

Deep in the pit

Of regrets and endless shame

Fear nipping on my heels

But driving me on.

There's no way out

Save through way of blood

Do I dare or am I

Lost even here?

Fighting a losing battle

Lose to hopeless hope

And lifeless life

Lose.

Wait, I have to--
