The Fight
My body’s 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 she prays
I reach for her
I’m sucked away
Like a deep crest of a wave
She 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 pain is 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 on my family
I regret that night
My life stopped ticking
because of a fight.
