In a Moment

One day I want to pass away,
To go further away,
Maybe decay,
If it’s okay,
But I want to pass away one day.

In a moment my love,
After I am tired of loving you,
After am so weak of caring for you,
After our togetherness has diluted,
I want to pass away.

In a moment I will go away my love,
I will go away from your tyranny,
I will go away from your brutality,
I will vanish from your insolent acts,
Because my love I can longer stand you.

In a moment my love,
I will be lowered down six feet,
In a plastic made container,
That will hide me from your constant shame,
And protect me from your punches.

In a moment my love,
Worms will feast on this body you keep peeling off,
Aunts will toast these figures you loathe,
Then you will know the taste of my love,
The love I struggled to keep for you only.

In a moment my Love, you will weep,
You will sob, sadly when am gone,
You will seek my heart again in vain,
And unending pain you will gain,
Then you will know how much important I was.

In a moment my Love, I will pass away,
You will miss my love lyrics,
You will never hear my sweet whispers again,
But only a shadow of darkness will crawl in your path,
Then you will know how much light I shed on you.

In a moment my love, when I pass away,
Erase the love tattoos we crafted on our hearts,
Forget the shadows of my beauty,
For  ours will be already over
