wait, in your sleep,
don't let them take you away
before we meet

for one last time then
you can leave

while you rest let me dress
in a funeral morning

stay with me until i
forget how to breathe

how to sing, how to speak
for i'm nothing without you

for all i ever did was to
bleed dry for you

in the cold afternoons
to seethe jealously

standing by your doors i
keep watch helplessly

to burn for all yours wants
for all your needs

that feed my desire
to be warm

filled with thoughts
and dead seeds

frolicking in your arms
forever on repeat

day after day
into a dying forest

that knows not what
is grief

sheltered by the moon
many a lover seek,

dying too soon.
