"darling"
May 11, 2015
grab my hand darling.
put it on your heart.
i need to feel you living--
not feel it breaking apart.
grab my chin, darling.
pull it closer to you.
i need to feel something--
something sweet like fondue.
grab my heart, darling.
push it far, far away.
i need to feel suffering--
like a cold, dark day.
grab my neck, darling.
make it so i cannot breathe.
i need to feel nothing--
oh darling, death is what i need.
grab my casket, darling.
place it down in the grave.
i no longer am crying--
my darling-- i was not brave.
