And down I looked, into the sad little creature of the pendant's eyes.

Sorrow. Loneliness. The look of longing.
And it was me that I saw inside of it.
I anticipated hurling myself inside of that river.

And then it came to me:
"If you need to be helped so desperately, let me help you start a new beginning."  
And so I threw it in, with a hint of urgency resonating inside.

As I walked away, I felt the sadness weigh in.

But I did not cry. For, I had just set myself free.
Free...of my own self.
And what could be more...

Thinking, thinking, thinking.
Sinking, sinking, sinking.
Is this where it ends for me, in this light?
I tried to be okay. I thought I'd be alright.

I don't know what's happening. Nobody would listen.
And now alone I'm stranded...so I rebuild from there.
