I see you...
  I see you...
As you were so many years ago.

That kindly face that held my hand and told me everything was going to be okay.
So scared was I to live, yet here you were to show me what life had to give.

The times we had; we laughed and cried.
How we held each other, consoling one another, swallowing each others pride.

All those memories, those beautiful memories we made, as we streaked to the heavens leaving behind a trail of moments frozen in time, forever, in perfect clarity.

I remember all those nights we faced each other before we slept, hoping I would be the first to wake to see your beautiful face masked in serenity.

Higher and higher we climbed, soaring beyond all my wildest expectations...all because of you.

And then...

Doubt crept in, fear following shortly thereafter.
So high was I, higher than I had ever been before.

All these questions, all these thoughts...thoughts of losing, momentum slowing.
I could not go any further with you, I could not bear the thought of losing you...so I left you, abandoned you.

Now I've lost my way, I've lost you, falling ever faster, tormented by all the memories I pass along the way down...
                                            
                                 down...
                                              
                                    down...

Oh, god...what have I done?  What have I done?!

I cannot watch any longer. I close my eyes, waiting for the pain to end...

....Laughter,
    
    ....Crying,
        
        ....Sounds of joy,
         
             ....Being consoled,
             
                  ....Our first kiss,
                      
                      ....The moment we first met,

                           ....The moment we first-
Daydreaming again. =P
