Every word that ever escaped your thin lips
Wrapped around trees like silk ribbons
I can hear you in the wind

When it rains
Your warm breaths coat my body like oil
Protecting every flaw

Your soul burns hot on the tip
Of my l a s t cigarette
I can feel it in my lungs

And I love you
... more than I will ever
let on

Your every bone may lie
Six feet beneath our world
Flesh, decayed to almost nothing

But as long as the sun shall rise
YOU...WILL...NEVER
die
