I looked down to you
My heart dropped and broke into a million pieces
You laid there looking at me with joyful eyes
I stood there holding my cries
The room buzzed with cheers
Though the only thing I heard was the rushing flow of our tears
You smiled through the pain
I cloaked my hands around yours like a chain
Looking away from your gaze
Turning towards the door my head in a daze

I looked down to you
My heart dropped and broke into a million pieces
You laid there with your eyes forever closed
I stood there my my agonizing cries exposed
The room was filled with an unpleasant silence
Though the only thing I heard was my heart beating as loud as sirens
Your smile no longer shown
I cloaked my hands around my own
Looking at the uninhabited sight chilled me to the bones
Turning towards the door my head dropped like it was filled with stones
