It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

I can feel myself slipping away
As everything fades to gray.
My arms are weak,
My legs fold
My heart beats faster
As my face hits the ground.
The smell of blood
The stench of fear
My ears are deaf
My senses shot
My breathing slows,
My chest stops moving
My pulse quits beating
As I slowly fade away.
