Parting
Tonight you and I are alone,
we sit in the corner of your room,
you leave me and I cry in the dark,
so you don't see my tears.
You give me back our pictures,
they only bind us,
I look at them and my hands tremble,
while my feelings grip me.
I'm going down the stairs,
you slowly close the door,
I have no reason to live,
but I will live to spite you.
