I Died ,We Died

I am dying and that's fine Because You are also dying Albeit more slowly and less frequently But misery loves company So, I count you into my suffering For me I prefer to get it over with YOU ARE DEAD MOSTLY BECAUSE GOD LOVES YOU MORE THIS WAY WE DON’T FEEL LIKE YOU ARE GONE BUT MAYBE WE WILL SEE YOU AGAIN WE JUST NEED GOD TO REALLY BE UP THERE But the will to jump off this story is faltering Let the tale decide my time of no glory Playing secondary roles in all your synopses I live to die again tomorrow in the morning For you let it happen just slowly To allow you to keep doing it seminally It matters yes but only in a jiffy Good thing is it will be over finally And we will all understand my mutterings I am dying you are dying we are dying A defiant chant to remind us of living And that’s fine and comforting I am dying and that’s fine Because you are dying too
