eulogy is another word for goodbye

and when the world crumbles
I'll paint you
in shades of cerulean and onyx
just to put you back together;

and when bloated words
lose their grip

I'll teach you to fall

"... before I walk away"

    In those few lines you've said more than some epics can say.
    I love the style and the tone of this and I really can't see anything I would say isn't impressive and brilliant.
    Thanks for sharing and best of luck in the contest
