i knew
this could be the sign
of things to come
sometimes im not the only one
feeling this way
dying here
soaking up fear
tell me your life
so i might hide you
in what little light
I can provide
a sparkle
cheap imitation
for others salvation
speak to me
like you care
as if im the only one
you truly want here..

Your closing statements are always so well done...bringing everything together for a perfect weave.
I like it! I like it!
