Inspired by Jennifer Niven’s “All The Bright Places”

When will he learn

How far is too much

Never slowing down

Too close to not touch.

Wants it to end

He’s ready to go

He is too tired

And time is too slow.

He wants to live

But he stopped trying

So the choice he makes

Will leave you crying.

He is sorry

He must leave you now

To reach the unknown

To take his last bow.

Lost in the fog

Alone in the deep

Bound by a promise

That he couldn’t keep.
