As he stared into the sky

He thought of her

The one who made life right

The one who kept him up all night

 

Like a beautiful flower

Glistening in the night

Reflecting that beautiful light

So sweet yet so fragile

Broken with just a snap

Yet the scent would still remain

 

There he laid

Weeping in the dark

Feeling like he should fade

Remembering that time

When they spent hours together

Enjoying like it was forever

 

But he had let her slip out of his hands

Regretting what he had done

Taking his life for granted

He had let it wandered

 

She had taken it in her hand

The time she would never forget

Letting the life she had treasured

Fall into an endless abyss of darkness

 

Her mind had weakened

She had been broken

And she decided,

It was time to be forsaken

 

As he saw a shooting star fly by

He wished that he would finally meet the night

The eternal night without a light

To see her once again

And be with her to the end

 

And as I look back

I see the truth

Those choices we call decisions

They were already made since the beginning

and the decisions I made

They were all part of destiny
