When everything is done,
You'll be lying in the white room.
Might just pick you up,
Holding back tears that never fell.

The eerie aura,
The light brings from the TV.
I insert you in the slot.

I saw what I was—
From my weakest
To my weirdest,
When I was broken
To being the happiest person alive.

I saw it all.
I have no tears left,
No happiness,
Nothing.

This room eats it all,
Or is it just that I lived happy?
Your voice felt distant,
But still, the warmth felt good.

The video plays my bittersweet life—
From the start to the end.
I watched it a thousand times,
Because who can meet people like you?
It's a rare occurrence.

Maybe if I had done something then,
Things would be different.
Maybe you would get to know me,
Me getting to know you all.
But no regrets—
I love seeing people enjoy;
I crave it.

A slight interruption in the video,
And I knew my time was up.
I closed my eyes,
A tiny drop of tear fell,
Leaving an echo in that one silent room.

Turning the once white room to black—
A void in which I fall forever.
Nowhere to be back.
