Fade by [Narcissistic Jew]

We all fade a little... it is none but to realize.
No one is happy all the time.
We all must soon realize we are never wise,
most of our hatred is sublime.
To love is not to say those simple little words
To love is not to act as though you may
Loving brings the flowers, the little blue birds
Loving brings your heart each new day.

The Most Precious Thing by [Brittany Rose]

You're the most precious thing on earth that I almost had
I was scared, but happy to think I would have you
My parents would be mad, but of course they wouldn't understand
I could have showed you the world and how beautiful it could be
If only you could've been real, things would have changed for me
No matter how bad things would be, I'd try to be happy and look in my heart
I would care for you and love you more than anything no matter how tough things would get

You're the most precious thing on earth that I almost had
I was scared, but happy to think I would have you
I'd keep you safe and we'd watch the sunset every night
I'd show you the stars and the bright full moon
I'd take you for walks on warm spring days and pick flowers for your room
We'd dance in circles under the warm sun and we'd watch the birdies and the bunnies

You're the most precious thing on earth I almost had
I was scared, but happy to think I would have you
But I found out you don't exist and now sometimes I feel empty

Left Behind by [Oddjob]

I left myself behind last month
In the snow below a forgotten tree

In a wood that no one goes to
I left myself behind

I left myself behind today
In shimmering aqua where I had passed
In the puddle of moon and sky
I left myself behind

I will leave myself behind tomorrow
On the cobbles of a forgotten path
Under the glare of cold winter
I will leave myself behind

In past, present or future
I will be forgotten
For I am the memory of the steps
That a stranger who has faded
From recollection took

I’m the memory they left behind…..
