Survivor

Standing over the shell
of what's left of our love
lying helpless in relationship hospice
was it something I did, I pray to above

Once strong and alive
now lying silent and motionless
sunken cheeks and hollow eyes
weak pulse, shallow breath, comatose

Presented with choices
no one desires to make
do I sustain the eternal dream
that our former passion will awake

Or do i concede
to what my heart refuses to accept
that i'm willing to exchange
the past for the present

With dreams left shambles
and tears on my cheeks
i take in one final gaze
to the plug, i reach
