Like lava shooting from the spout,
rolling down the mountainside,
engulfing me in raging tongues of flame,
nothing spared, no, nothing saved,
taking me away,
     taking me away-
just a little bit each and every day,
with molten high-tech tests.
and murky I.V. drips,
no more tears of real pain left,
just flames flames flames
along with medicated ether trips.

The tears that have come from your eyes
For arguments you’ve had.
The words, tension, needing to cry
For just because you can’t get on,
Don’t you think that’s sad?

What would you do
Without the one you love?
What would you do?
Don’t you think enough’s enough?

Needing one another
But not wanting this to show!
Shouting at each other
With nowhere left to go.

Today I took a life

Feeling nothing worldly but strife

I cried a tear of pain

Never happiness would I deign

Tomorrow is nothing but sun

But I will be all but done

My life is naught but fear

Crying tear after tear

— The End —
