Slowly Fading Away

He's slipping away. There's nothing that I can do about it. This was the choice made, but it wasn't supposed to be this way. It just wasn't.....Every time it enters my thoughts, tears begin to crawl into the corners of my eyes. I feel ashamed that I couldn't make things better, couldn't make things work....didn't know what to do. Now there's an emptiness taking hold and trying to take over. I must not let that happen. Your eyes don't like me anymore.
