Seven Days To Say Goodbye...

Day One:

My body can’t feel anymore
I can’t accept that you’re not here
I remember the way things were before
When losing you was not a reality but a fear.

I saw you lying on the floor
Not breathing at all
A suicide note taped to the door
But your vacant eyes say it all.

You gave up your life
I couldn’t believe my eyes
When I saw the blood stained knife
I didn’t think forever was meant in your goodbye

Day Two:

I can’t sleep with you in my head
Remembering the haunting scene
I don’t want to believe your dead
And I keep expecting to wake from this dream.
But I know I won’t so I pretend I will instead.

The school halls feel empty without you here
I feel so lost with you to point the way
Losing you was my biggest fear
And I was forced to face it yesterday

I see the sorrow in everyone’s eyes
But I still hear your voice ringing in my ears
I still haven’t said my goodbyes
But I can’t suppress the tears.

I keep staring at the empty seat
I can’t seem to think at all
As I trip over my own feet
And repeatedly fall.

Day Three:

I’m tired of waiting to see your face
I hate that I can’t accept it
I’ve never felt so alone in this place
And I’m haunted by new images I can’t forget.

Your parents won’t leave your home
Your friends are all dressed in black
And I just walk alone,
Desperately wishing you’d come back.

Day Four:

I watched people at the stand
Giving kind words of comfort to us all
But they don’t understand,
It was us who failed to catch your fall.

I watched them lower you to the ground
To be hidden from the world forever
As feelings of hurt surround
I remember our last days together.

Day Five:

Slowly it starts to sink in
You’re never coming back
Your last words recorded in your skin
Now the days vary from gray to black.

No more smiles or crying
And I rarely even spoke
I’m about to give up even trying
When you left my heart just broke.

I don’t want to live with out you
I miss the feeling of your gentle touch
I’m debating on what to do
I miss you so much…

A hollow feeling settles in my heart
As coldness traps me
I’m falling apart
This isn’t the way I wanted things to be…

Day Six:

I’m growing desperate to see you again
I can’t take this pain anymore
It took so long to fully sink in
Now my heart hurts more than before.

I can’t take it anymore!
I can’t live in this misery
I was always there for you before
Why did you leave me?

What happened to forever?
All I got was goodbye
I wanted us to always be together
Did you even know? Did you even try?

You made your choice
And now it’s my time
I know what it takes to hear your voice
And now you’ll hear mine.

Day Seven:

The rope is tied tightly around my throat.
I kick the chair over to leave this place
Read about it my suicide note
I saw no tunnel just your beautiful face.

I saw you waiting for me
As my breath is gone
Now we can be
After seven days too long …

Remember, I told you forever
As death quickly takes me away
You wait for me, so we can be together
Because forever starts today

I hope everyone understand why
I couldn’t live without you
It took seven days to say goodbye
To everyone but you.
