Slipping away

You pulled me back
from the edge
of all that was lost
to a galaxy of
nothingness.

As you held on
to the splintered
fragments
that once made up
me
I felt all those
big dreams
slip away.

And how they did.

Squeezed into the
blackness
of an ever expanding
black hole.

But you held on to
me.

And I was empty.

And I was alone.

And I just wanted
you to
let go.
