When I'm gone!

They missed my presence,

and cried out my name,

twice and thrice, but I never came...

They joined their hands

which would plead out of a need

and wished I'd stay

but that would only lead

To more of me gone

And their hearts that would bleed!

They missed how I'd been there always,

when we'd been on good terms, 

in a good phase...

They hated themselves for the disrespect they gave

For whom they would, now only crave!

I watched them helplessly from another parallel universe,

Would've been with them, 

If they hadn't made conditions as worse

I would if I could, 

Stand by their side again

and be there for them

If only I didn't have to suffer pain!

I cannot return

I'm something they had to earn

I don't just pass by, I don't know how to fly

I don't just disappear, they kill me and grieve 

And shamelessly ask why I would leave

And then start all over again to plead: 

"Damn, time is all I need!"
