WHY KILL ME AGAIN?

Why kill me again
I am already dead
They said it was dehydration
Because of the tears I'd shed.

When you promised me love
You in my heart did I deeply embed
But now the emptiness within
Echoes the words you once said.

I tried to plow our world with love
Yet thorny nestles was all it bred
With your gift I tried to write a love poem
But its turned into my obituary instead.

Just wanted to tell you
That my love led me to my death bed
Yes, my dearest friend
I'm dead - oh! so dead
