Tonight, when we said goodnight I meant goodbye. Truth be told I was getting cold Stood on the doorstep. I wanted to be warming by the fire Yet, you stood and talked I fidgeted and balked at your droning voice You wanted to discuss us further there is no us, I murmured yet on and on you droned about our future, our perfect partnership. Until in the end, I had to end the night with ******. Until we meet again at the gates of Hell (Where you'll be there waiting to talk again) Please just remember my temper, It flared that cold night and killed you with a jolly shove. You hit the path and dealt yourself a death blow At least your death wasn't slow (unlike the goodnight at my door) Brevity is a necessity explicitly born out of hostility. And your obituary was less than a paragraph.
