The Cure

There is no going back
Let's marvel at what we were
Forget what they told you about that future
And smile at the light of the present

Never forget what you taught me
Even if I only knew it for a second
You broke through to me
When no one else could

When no one else dared to try

Halfway as you were
You are the closest to salvation
That I can ever hope to see
You are the only angel that I am allowed

Maybe I stepped too far with you
Hoped a little too much
Felt your heartbreak as my own
And in turn felt it shatter

You'll never know quite what you did
How close I was before you saved me
And with my entire heart, I hope
That you shall never have to

These harsh words would slay you
Leave you broken beyond recognition
A fate that I cannot bear witness to
You are much too good for that

Too good for me

This world was not worthy of your grace
Nor could it's inhabitants understand your beauty
I hope one day to write of you
To show them of your wonders

I wish only for them to know your heartache
They needn't embrace it or carry it with them as I do
Only be aware of the implications and complications
That your mind must burden for miles

With that I bid you adieu
Finally and wholeheartedly
