On My Suicidal Husband
I cannot fight the dead
Or those that want to die
I cannot will you to life
Or happiness
And I have no desire to be
The keeper of your fate
That I lay squarely at your feet
Choose to go or choose to stay
Life is a dance to be lived
But only by those who hear the music
Dance lover dance
And when the music fades
Take your exit as you please
For I cannot fight the dead
Or those that want to die
