Stage 1: Denial

You aren't gone

You're still mine

You're still here

You're just fine

Stage 2: Anger

I hate you

It's your fault260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFlwYn3V3R

That you're gone

It's your fault

260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvh3ejytQS

Stage 3: Bargaining

Please come back260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjD52kkU2S

I'll do anything

I'll take your place

Just come back to me

260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAQPtQDmE7

Stage 4: Depression

I didn't mean it

It's my fault

I love you

And it's my fault

260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUioarNBze

Stage 5: Acceptance

They say now I'm happy

They say I've moved on

And now I've accepted it

So why does this still feel like stage 1?

Stage 6: Repeat

There isn't any "end" to grief260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdskUbkFswA

I've never "accepted" it

I'll always miss you

But I'll always hide it

Seven times I've tried to join you

Seven times I've been stopped

Seven times I've been called selfish

For wanting to be with you

Stage 8: Give Up

Stage 9: Lose Hope

Stage 10: Move On (I guess)

Stage 11: Try To Forget

260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMFqYpFnEU

Stage 12: Nothing

I don't breathe, I don't move

Lying still in this pool

Made of crimson from my wrists

And I vaguely hear something

260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwliLTULCx

Stage 13: You

Against my lips

On my breath

Like a whisper of flesh

And I'm gone
