You belong here
Let the pain
reign.
Won't be free
or gain
anything.
Such a thing
is a lie.
​
Die.
I want to die.
No one's on
my side.
My life
is all lies.
Disguise.
​
Remember.
You cannot deny
that you have come from a better time.
It might
seem like a dream
that you used to soar
to fly.
​
Float.
Let it go.
No one's on
your side.
There's no point.
Don't try.
Don't cry.
You're going to
​
NO
​
hope.
Stay afloat.
For a little bit longer.
Despair.
I don't care
at all.
I'm gonna fall.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Just a little bit longer.
Hold on.
Because you belong here.
​
And there will come a time
where you will finally know
that you will finally heal
that you will finally grow.
Don't go, i'll have you know
that I am gonna be here.
Stay with me, don't disappear
for a little bit longer.
​
Oh, how I long for
Happiness.
​
And if the weight is just too heavy
please just tell me when you're hurting.
It's okay to be in pain
I don't wanna be a burden
please just tell me if you're hurting.
Please just stay.
It will be okay.
​
Because life
isn't like a story.
You must never end it to early.
And the pain will go away.
Just stay.
For a little bit longer
because you belong here.
​
And there will come a time
where you will finally know
that you will finally heal
that you will finally grow.
​
I don't know how long your pain will last
but it'll pass.
Please don't give up
the sky will clear.
Because you belong here.
​
And when I looked into your eyes
I was surprised, I never knew.
But if the past just doesn't matter
you'll know I'm telling the truth.
When I looked into your eyes
and when I put off my disguise
I just knew.
​
I knew I was in heaven with you.
​
We'll see this through.
​
Your scars will disappear,
no more tears and no more fear
because you belong here.
​
You belong here.
​

Sorry for this insanely long poem. I just wrote it off the top of my head without thinking too much about it. This is my first time posting here, and any form of constructive criticism is highly appreciated.
