Analysis of All For You



As the tide whisks away all my mistakes,
All my countless unfixable misdeeds,
The ones I made all for you, my heart breaks,
Because you were always my only need.

When I was left all alone to suffer,
To drown in the glorious memories,
The infinite task acting as buffer,
Because you were my only remedy.

The endless begging and pleading to save,
To heal any and every wound he caused,
To finally rid myself of the crave,
To finally stop the clock and be paused.

Now when time has come to a dead set stop,
I can sit quietly watching raindrops.
