In Death

My dear in death
Do we stay together?
I pick them from the page
Reimaging the ways to kill them
Coming to conclusion
Make it look like cancer
Make it look like fire
Make it look like death by desire
On my face in the mirror
Their spirits play
Body’s burned to ash and forgotten
Will you stay with me?
As you slowly die in my memory?
