MY BODY IS COLD
My bodies cold
lips are blue
why did I do this because of you?
I feel the earth below me
like a pillow under my head
no knives, no guns, but pills instead
The bottle lays empty
cap unscrewed
what did I do? what did I do?
My spirit floats my body lays
my lover finds me
and he prays
I reach for him
I'm sucked away
like a deep crest of a wave
he pounds the ground
screaming why oh why?
I asked myself why did I?
My parents arrive, my best friend too
I thought to myself, What did I do!?
I look away the pains to deep
my life is over because of me
I look back for one last glance
they zip me up in the body bag.
I did this to ease my pain
I lost instead of gained
as I look down my family
I regret that night
my life stopped ticking
because of a fight
