CARPE DIEM

by PAULA

One more thing before you go;
I hope you know what you mean to me.
Even though your scars have leaned on me through your darkest days,
I still carry the burden faithfully.
One more thing before you go;
Just bow your head and pray
To never waste a day,
To never falter in your stride,
And to always feel alive
As you take my breath away.
One more thing before you go;
I have to know…
Did you think of me when you ran from the show?
The band still played,
Yet, you pretended not to know
The danger of our fall.
We broke away.
Did you just not care?
Was your heart in it at all?
Were there any feelings there?
I know I’ve said this before.
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times,
I swear.
But, one more thing before you go;
Would it have killed you to try?
Say hello to the angels below.
