What Then?

What happens when....
The one you thought would never leave
Is gone and now your left to grieve... alone?

Or when you're the only one left alive
But wish it had been you who died... instead?

Or have seen this world for what it is
And not even close to what you wish... it was?

Or should be,
Or could be,
But won't be,
Because we don't see
The lies. The pain,
You ignore
Again.

What happens when...
You take the time to look and find
That what you thought was freedom are ties that bind?

Or that a step too late, a pause, a wait,
Can be the thing that undoes fate... what then?

And how you can't undo the wrongs you've caused,
Or forget what's lost... to you?

Or how you fear to die alone
Because you thought you've always known.... that's life
I shouldn't have to fight a battle I'll never win, just to lose those I've never had.
