Wither

Wither
I will wither away 
Wither 
I will die today 
Wither 
This will be the end 
Wither 
My bones will grow thin 
Wither
My body will be gone  
Wither 
My soul may still live on
Wither 
Today is the day
Wither 
I’ve been waiting for, 
so long.

Hello Maxx! This is cleverly written! "Wither " denotes on going decay, entropy, a lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder. I'm hoping this isn't a place you are emotionally... that this is just a beautiful poem not a letter? Thinking of you, praying your ok. Soupmail me if you need to talk. <3<3
