Till Death

this is just a story i wrote one night

I wait for you to speak.

Somewhere,

a bullet leaves a gun

I know your words will break my heart.

Someone is hit.

Your words pierce at my heart.

They fall to the floor.

My mouth lashes back at you.

Someone is dieing.

I realize what I’ve done.

Someone is calling 911.

You scream at me.

An ambulance is coming.

This is my fault, you say.

Its taking them away.

I tell you to get out.

Their going to the hospital.

What I really want is you to stay.

They wont make it in time.

Your leaving me.

Someone is dieing.

I could call out for you.

I wish it was me.

I don’t.
