Act 2, Scene 2, line 43
 
 
---------------------------------
So, thanks for the distractions But I need to pursue my passions What path am I on again? My universe was turned upside down I gave you my hearts crown And you were too busy filling your purse In other words, can I get a reimburse? Of the curse of knowing you Time cannot reverse Where to Start? You may argue that it was my choice to go rescue Because I thought I saw, strength, value, and virtue That’s why I was into and wanted to continue Now I see though that your love was never true It was all just a waste; my heart needs to be erased My hearts broken and needs to be awoken Where to Start? Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea A temptress, lies, beneath the see Drowning deep in her misery Her honey-sweet voice screams to me Siren's melodies ‘That which we call a rose’ Weaves her venomous thorns My chapters burn, their pages torn Lust of sinners entwined to the mast ‘Death hath sucked the honey of thy breath’ Crimson, crimson the petals lie Thus, betrayed by her soul kiss, I die I need a nurse, for these symptoms are getting worse But the dispatcher only wanted to send a hearse Because I’m frozen and instead I’m being led in a sled Consumed by this blackened cavity tissue Because girl you are my issue My love became the smoke of a cigar Forgotten memoirs of a fallen star Thrown down and drown in a shadowy well Farewell. No misspell. I meant, "Go To Hell!" Here’s my eulogy. Wish you never met me Thanks for the remembrance of you Where to start? She a player who’s queued for her next match Wanting to try out her newest patch Then taking aim And ------- until there is nothing else to game The body counts Something is wrong with her account Where to start? She needs to go find a new toy Something like a little soldier boy Melting all the plastic Making all the room toxic Did someone call for the medic? The verdict, horrific My empty cavity Just a tragic memory Where to start? Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea A temptress, lies, beneath the see Drowning deep in her misery Her honey-sweet voice screams to me As there will always be this shadow behind my --- To harass As a reminder of our past So, why do the nice guys finish last? Because of you! Where to start? In pain, I cried Being electrified In this hospital room Called life’s classroom I’ll need a qualified doctor Something to monitor This surgery of your robbery From the treasury Of my heart Where to start? Her eyes a luring ocean’s plea A temptress, lies, beneath the see Drowning deep in her misery Her honey-sweet voice screams to me Siren's melodies ‘That which we call a rose’ Weaves her venomous thorns My chapters burn, their pages torn Lust of sinners entwined to the mast ‘Death hath sucked the honey of thy breath’ Crimson, crimson the petals lie Thus, betrayed by her soul kiss, I die
