Fading into the background,
I become a piece of scenery.
Watching you interact,
Watching you forget.
Do you ever hear my voice
Whispering in your ear at night?
Do you see my face
Shining bright?
Or do you see me as I really am?
Sickly pale,
Anticipating the time to come.
The time when I can take that leap,
Make that bound,
For my life to be unwound.
The crevice widens,
It's almost too late.
Why are you holding on so?
Is that a tear in your eye?
One drop slides down your face,
I realize my mistake,
I've been sucked under,
Damn Fate!
