Move On

Move on, the world is fading. She's gone, she's not whole, she's lost for eternity and 
all you can hear is her cries in the wind. Move on, I won't let you stay I've fallen that 
doesn't mean you have to come with me. Take two steps back and figure out just where you 
are. Am I worth it? Your not answering me are you still there? Would you risk everything 
just so I could breath again? I barely hear your whispers are you leaving me? Move on, 
I know it hurts right now but it's for the best. Move on, close your eyes and wish me 
away. I'm in a better place now, I don't ever want to see you frown. Tears drop down on 
my finger tips, I touch you softly as you back away. Something are just not meant to be, 
you and me we'll meet again eventually. It hurt me inside that your deciding to leave 
now. I lay sick choking on the many memories that we may never get to experience. Move 
on, bury me in your mind so you won't feel any pain. I'm leaving now hear my voice slowly 
stopping. Can you hear me now? Move on baby I promise I will come back for you. But this 
time god is holding out his hand and he's offering me things we both couldn't imagine. So 
let me go a tear fell from her eye as the hand he held grew cold and still. The guy 
smiled and a sudden bitter grin. She was finally free was it selfish that he wanted her 
trapped? At least for a moment so they could be together. He held her limp, light hand 
and kissed it. Tasting coldness he knew this was him moving on.
