You Will Never Die

You will not die,
you will
not go away.
You sat the poison on
the table,
I saw it 
with wet eyes, damp
cheeks. I wish 
I could breath lavender
air, so that
life would leave me alone
I wish that you 
would burn out.
Go away my mental 
pain, 
my black memories.
My broken rainbow, lost 
in the fog
can see you in
the distance. 
Never will you go away
because 
scars never heal.
