You aimed high, And then you missed, And paid the price, My heart is breaking, Your worlds-apart gone away, I can’t hold on, Fools gold and, Illusions, Plague my mind, Unstable, Unable to control myself, A feeling, Of emptiness, Pervades my heart and soul, You’ve left the world, I’d taken you for granted till today, I just wish that I could say goodbye, I can no longer live this lie, Its time to recoup and go, But I’m still hanging on by a thread, Please just don’t seriously be dead, But I know deep inside, That hopes, Will only lead to heartbreak, Cameras don’t lie, They see whats been done, So all I ask, Is that in your place in the sun, Please just remember me, Ill always be here, A world away,
Reason for writing:
My idol just joined the Air Force and on his 3rd flight his plane ran out of fuel and crashed. Hes dead now, and this may be the worst I have ever felt.
Birth sign: Virgo
