Today I watched you die

I watched the spark go out in your eye

I heard you as you let out a cry

And not once did I bat an eye

I hope your mommy doesn’t mind that I’ve let you go

I pray she understands that I tried to tell you no

I tried to persuade you to go no further

Your thoughts were concrete

You wanted a way out of this life

And you found it in me

You held your wrist up high

You let your pride hang low

Took a knife in the other hand

Starting cutting real slow

Watching as the blood poured to the floor

You looked in the mirror

With eyes that told me you couldn’t take it anymore

Cutting slow, but punturing deep

I could feel the pain as if the blade were being cut into me

And then I fell to the floor

My foggy mind hit a new realizaiton

The reason your pain made me feel such connection

I watched myself die

I stared into the eyes of my own reflection
