Standing
I’m standing in the road,
Waiting on the next car to come around the bend
Thinking silently, in the back of my mind, I ask myself one question:
Should I really do this?
I miss her so much, the laughs we used to share
The way she would laugh at my clumsiness.
I’m slowly slipping into the darkness
She was my light
Take her away, and all that’s left is the pain.
She was the escape.
From life, from everything.
It was easy with her.
She was perfection
Why didn’t I tell her when I had the chance?
I miss her.
I miss us.
She was my everything.
Now, I am nothing.
I have nothing.
No one.
I’m alone in this world,
Searching for my Emilou.
But who's to say she can be found?
I’ll search until I find her.
I want that sweet escape one last time,
So until I take my last breath,
I’ll be looking,
Searching for my Emilou
