my dead parade (Free verse) by crin
bring me flowers that is all i ask i have no favorite so don't worry i won't be disappointed turn all your tv's on and let the static roar remember me this way steady and unrelenting black and white and shades of gray you could always count on me to be there when you didn't want me but now you notice how empty you feel forgive me i forgive you i almost held it all against you until i realized it could only hurt us more than the damage we had already done to one another so i let wings unfold and tried to pick up these shards without cutting myself anymore because i didn't want my blood on your hands i wouldn't paint my blood on your hands maybe there was no blame to cast now that i'm leaving i do admit it feels like something is missing like i'm a little dead inside but still i feel more alive than when i was with you i've realized this never ends no matter what you say please don't be angry i still care just not like i used to i know i've changed but only because you made me now the only question is what did i make you
