Everyone is so concerned. about death. and who died And who was the closest to the deceased persons But don't bother to call me for I was not close to them At night, we cry; longing for the ones. the living, ending our lives; Didn't prove an escape No longer Can we take our, Pills and bury the pain; But don't bother to call me, for I will not pick up Do the laundry! Twenty-eight loads; But don't fold it... or give it away... For they may be Keepsakes; And don't bother to call me. For I will be folding laundry.

Don't Bother to call me
Everyone is so concerned. about death. and who died And who was the closest to the deceased persons But don't bother to call me for I was not close to them At night, we cry; longing for the ones. the living, ending our lives; Didn't prove an escape No longer Can we take our, Pills and bury the pain; But don't bother to call me, for I will not pick up Do the laundry! Twenty-eight loads; But don't fold it... or give it away... For they may be Keepsakes; And don't bother to call me. For I will be folding laundry.
