Poison
As I lay here dieing I wonder,
What I would have done
If you had talked to me
If only you would have talked to me
I would not be lying here dieing
I would not have drank that poison
I would not have wondered what you think about me
Now I realize what I have done
I do not want to die
I want you to know I love you
I run to the phone
I call the hospital
The words won’t come out
The poison is in my blood
My heartbeat slows
My breathing harsh
In a minute, I’ll be gone
Don’t forget me and remember,
I loved you
You walk in the door too late
You watch me take my last breath
Please don’t cry
It’s not your fault
Don’t cry
Goodbye
