The sky split open above our heads, black clouds, bleeding their quiet dread the world grew heavy. The ground gave away like gravity, begging your bones to stay. I saw the storm in the lines of your face time sharpening every second in place and something ancient inside my chest knew what had to happen next mountains, bending under the strain cities, drowning in iron rain. Every step felt colder than stone, like the Earth itself had found its throne. Your breath was fragile against the night, a candle, trembling in dying light, and the weight of the world began to fall like heaven finally dropped it all, but before I could crush your fragile frame, I step forward and took the blame so I held the sky above your head while the stars collapsed in burning red every bone screaming under the strain, but I would carry that endless pain with the oceans climb in the heavens crack let the mountains break across my back if the world demands a soul to stand then I will be that broken man some loves are too heavy to survive the ground kept shaking beneath my feet, but you still looked imp, possibly sweet, like the storm forgot to touch your skin while it carved the scars deep within the windscreen louder through shattered air, but the silence between us stayed there. You didn’t see what it took to stand with the world, grinding in my hands your eyes held peace. I could never claim, but I would do it all the same, so I held the sky above your head while the stars collapsing in burning red every heartbeat tearing apart, but your name was stronger than my heart. Let the oceans climb and the heavens crack let the mountains break across my back if the world demands a life to bend then I will hold it to the end. The sky grows heavier the air turns black the bones begin to fracture, but I will not let it touch you the strongest shoulders break in silence. Love is sometimes the slowest way to die now the sky is resting and bleeding hands, and the Earth forgets where mercy stands every nerve collapsing in the strain but your heartbeat makes it all remain. Let the stars burn out in endless night. Let the heavens down and faded light if the price of peace is everything I am then I will end where you began. I carried the world so you never had to.
