Last Days Of Summer by Silverstein

The bright light beams from her eyes like broken glass. Or a broken heart, who would have guessed? You’d leave me here. Beneath my eyes I feel the tears, I hold back. I won’t leave this way again. As my legs start to shake, I feel nothing. I wanted you, I needed you, but you weren’t there for me this time. I won’t leave this way again. You that I loved, that I needed. You weren’t there. Not this time. What can I do? I was supposed to love you. What can I say? I won’t leave. What can I do? I was supposed to help you. I cannot feel. Last breath I feel, warm air intake. The last summer’s day, last one I take. I won’t leave this way. Lost it all for you. When the shadows beam, misery remains. I won’t leave this time.
