Checking the pulse on our love in a room that felt so dead was the hardest part
The worst was hearing the faint thump,
only coming from one side, mine.

Realizing that being half alive, was worse than being dead.
I killed it, you killed it, we both did away with what was left.
We waited for the silence, the final breath, but when it came time
I was the only one to witness it.
