When you read this,
I will not be the same.
I have let my true form show, this is my last.
Lost in all my guilt, for letting you fall.
Understand it, wasn't me.
But I can't dream, without showing intentions.
As I ask, as I ask, as I ask these questions.
Where were you now I can't see, through your eyes.
I remember the day, the sun went out.
It halted all progression with all its beauty.
It just sacrificed, we fell apart.
Sincerely yours, I've disowned you.
Sincerely yours, I've disowned us.
