Karenian Sunset

Where did the time go?
Where did my life go?
The tides draw near
I'm afraid to let go

All I see at my feet
Are the cold and the dead
All that remains right here
Are the decayed remnants
Of what was
Of what might have been

Where am I meant to go
When I can't breathe?
When I can't breathe
How far is too far
Up on the beach?
Upon the beach

All I think all alone
Are the things I wish I'd said
All that remains are bones
And nothing but the sky ahead
All I want, all I want
Is to go home again!
But I can't—

I cannot... I'm dead
