~1~
Under a cold mood setting autumn night.
I fell between the cracks of where the ember and the ivy split.
I landed onto warm snow and still i nearly froze to death.
I sheltered under the most beautiful willow ever.
I hid under her until euthanasia ended its search.
As I was left wasting away you attempted playing god.
Like a hurricane changing directions.
With winds infuriatively agile.
You hit the ground before I could blink.
You captivated the graveyard of dead light.
Where I stood unharmed and unwanted.
Singing all the scenes I could remember on my journey with you.
~2~
Your eyes began screaming for mercy.
As soon as the sun disapeared beyond the horizon.
Your tears were blacker than the space between.
As love struck twelve, your heart beat faster.
Faster than lighting as it crashes to the ground
You held onto me as if I could save you.
We both knew the fall would be unbearable.
So we took it together and embraced each other on the way down.
We ran discreetly through the neglected town.
Screaming to just speak again.
The sleet began to burn holes in our throats.
The sky began to turn purple as our bodies turned pale.
We began to pick up the remains and form them into stars.
We threw them into the sky hoping it would be the same.
So we fell down once more and gazed up.
Listening to each others hearts deteriorate.

As we walked further into the ocean.
The water began to transition.
From a breathtaking cerulean to a thick silver.
We opened our mouths but all that came out was dry ash.
We began to lose hope and wonder if we would ever return home again.
Your smile was the only thing that kept me searching.
It was the only thing I wanted to see again.
We landed on a shore of alabaster sand
A beach we both remembered
We began running for the forest as you fell behind
Your body began to blend in with the sand.
and you kissed me one last time with a smile.
And the shore picked you up and you drifted out in towards the sun.
I poured tears out my heart for you.
And I continued my journey remaining alone
Afterall you could only asphyxiate on my words for so long...

The first two parts are beautiful. The first one was calm and I read slowly, drinking in your descriptions (I love the line, 'between the cracks of where the ember and ivy split'). Then the second one had me read faster. The last one's rhythm was a bit confusing, although the lines by themselves read nicely, it was a bit jerky from each line to the next.
The last line is beautiful, though. Overall it's well done, I think you just got a bit frantic with the last part, although it kind of contributes to the emotion.
