mercy

i just need that right moment

to run from this perfect amalgam of confusion and doubt

this overcooked stew of panic and frenzy

hide in a space where i could infinitely freeze

and stare out cold, stunned and lifeless

feel my heart take its sullen pause

and cry...damn, howl even

into the unreachable depths of sorrow

at the mind-boggling finality

of losing you...

 

i need to get over this.

the ending has got to be so clear

no ifs, no buts, no more gut-wrenching self-persecution

i need that ******* perfect moment

to nail this ******* coffin.

 

i need that precious moment to grieve

cash in my pure unadulterated mourning

my monumentally epic funeral

one that would put your self-loathing to shame

as i shed my shameless tears for you

for losing you,

the incredibly amazing you...

and for losing us,

the one-in-a-million Us.

 

when can I have that moment?

please?
