Be Gone
Death be gone
I cannot, I will not
How could I ever leave you alone?
My bones ache
My suicide results
Remain submerged in the wrong lake
Come if you will
As a subject in your tragedy
On my final lay, I may lie ill
Death be gone
I cannot, I will not
How could I ever leave you alone?
I am the taker of man
The maker of your failing stand
In between plagues and romance
I must intervene
To call it cruelty is so vague
Only in those final hours
Shall we have our scene
Death be gone
There will be no open doors
No creeks in your floor
Please be gone
Why do you wish me away?
I will not plague your mirror
Though the thought is so inferior
