Recently changed based on feedback. Tell me what you think.
I lie here, empty, in the consuming silence,
The memories tearing away at me,
Crying softly in the drowning silence,
I watch the shadows swallow the room.

Let me fall into the sky,
And pierce the perfect veil,
Distort the image of the drifting clouds,
As I give my final farewell.

And I'll look back on happier times,
Hand in hand we'd watch the stars,
Memories that will last forever,
Quite unlike those precious moments.

Clouds march alongside me,
As I cry in the drowning silence.
Consumed by the emptiness inside,
Loved memories tear me apart.

Let me fall into the sky,
Reflected on the water,
Breaking the beautiful illusion,
I drift into eternity,
Forever remembering you.

Nothing but oblivion awaits me,
As I embrace the glistening stars,
A single tear on my cheek, I wonder,
Will you remember me?
