Breathless and Dead

so i went to that same place,
the very one we first met,
and i smelled its odor,
and i knew i needed you more.

days and days went by,
i could see you every once awhile,
but i needed to find that perfect time,
to at-least try make you mine.

i waited for the perfect time,
in my mind i planned it all for a while,
and when i saw you that final day,
you were lying breathless and dead.
