Highschool Love (Other Side)

by Yours Truly - Aquarius

<i>I was only in highschool,
I thought I knew it all.
I didnt realize 
How everything could fall,
In front of my face
and Covering my eyes.
Just one little thing can 
change your whole life.
I thought it was a joke,
A sick one at that.
And that you'd be here tomorrow
Ready to get back
In the swing of things,
The beginning of school.
Being with eachother
Was our only fuel.
And I look back now
and I remember so clearly.
The night before you died,
How you looked at me,
Your eyes they were so innocent
Your smile so sincere.
Right before you left you whispered
"I'm sorry" in my ear.
i didnt think a thing of it,
you walked out my door.
I can still hear your footsteps
as they thudded against the floor.
and i can just imagine
the blood that stained your wrist
and the haunting sounds
of the paramedics
that you hated so much.
remember the time that you told me that?
you said youd never ride in one
in front or in the back.
but now that i am saying this
theres something gnawing at me.
why didnt you just tell me?
i wouldnt have laughed
i wouldnt have cried.
but i could've gone with you
and lived with you on the other side.</i>
