Killing you, Killing me

In a different time, It was a different place
you were so numb, I had tears on my face
both so high, both so low
out of our heads, with no where to go
Our darkness set us free
but the love was killing you, killing me
It was a brighter day, or so it seemed
we just couldn't see the rain falling all around our feet
with your shallow breath, with your head on my chest
and your hand slowly losing it's grip to mine
you do this to survive
to escape your pain and hide
but how long can you run till you run outta breath
and you have to steal mine?
shooting for your synthetic stars
while I risk reaching out to where you are
all this time I've been trying so hard
to pull you up without falling further down myself
Once the darkness set us free
but the love was killing you, killing me
I'm losing you but I'm saving myself
you've pulled every string that I had left
now there's nothing left for you to do
caue I've got nothing left for you to hold on to
Once the darkness set us free
but the love was killing you, killing me
Once the darkness set us free
I can't help but think I coulda saved you now, and that kills me.

I love that reaccurent line... very strong.
Kinda reminds me of that song, "I think we're alone now." Kinda, if it were darker. But very good, thanks for sharing.

Very nice, touching poem.
You shouldn't blame yourself. You cannot save someone else. They either save themselves or they don't.
You saved yourself, right?
All the best to you!

..it's all I can do to breathe. . .
your honesty is brutal.. and splendid as well, the work:
the title and it's repetition throughout..
or the 4th stanza (worthy enough on it's own) by far - perhaps prior to the 7th..lol
very well written-
*k.. I'm done*
