Lethality of Lost Love

How Losing a Forever Love Can Kill

Air has left

The sun has left past its era

Life is incorrect

This time of now, I can no longer bear

Black approaches from the rear

My mind loses path wandering farther adrift

Darkness drawing closer near

Hello my new eternal soulmate, Miss Abyss

They said the fire of your soul

Burns too bright

To feel the cold

Well, despair it seems instead is right

I apologize dear friends

My heart is no longer my own to defend

My time to enter through the of mental departure

Has come ever since the days I lost her

It seemed life always held an open door

Leading to paths we could run and flee

Only thing now is the loaded gun in the desk drawer

She closed every single one, and took every key

She slowly pushes my finger gently against the trigger

As she watches at my bedside

Obsession entrenched in her like a damned sinner

Nothing is left for me, not even my pride

I'm sorry I have gone mother

Please don't forget me my brother

My face glides down in perfect arc into death's murky mud

Looks like love has won
