Fall Silently

a long time ago, in a perfect world
there was bliss
and love
and comfort

many a day ago, i met you
my friend
the guardian
the survivor

years ago, it seemed endless
the rain
the stars
the fun

then one day,
one fateful day....

...it all vanished

drifting as the sands of time
fleeting as the lives of beings
we all fell
we all hurt
we all forgot

and i, dear friend,
watched as you lived it
the worst
the pain
the tears

regrettably, sitting back,
witnessing the chaos,
too afraid to even face my own
unable to help you
unable to break the chains that weighed me

but now, i see we are... okay
you have moved on
and so have they

i however,
remained too caught in the endless loop
and was left behind

but now...
but now... dear friend...
have all but lost myself
in losing him...
