Why do I even try? False prophets in empty hallways, I wish I could see your face always. In my dreams and in my nightmares I'm always losing you night after night. I die everyday. I wish for sleep more than dreams. Rose petals on the floor and shattered glass from the night before. I can't live like this anymore. Looking back on my life, watch the leaves change and fall from the sky. Is this what it feels like to die -- to be overlooked and left behind? I can still smell the ocean breeze and the building fear inside. At this rate I'll be alone. Tasting the frostbite in the air, idle feet taking me nowhere. All these remainders come crashing down, suffocating me from all around. This is my dying wish; this is my end to this. On my last dying breath I'll make this worth it in the end. Rose petals on the floor and shattered glass from the night before. I can't live like this anymore. Why do I lay awake at night and think of my life as it passes me by? I'd be lying if I said I've gotten used to this -- all these sleepless nights.
