Commit

A Poem by oranges_melt
"

he's dying of cancer and his love is too coward to help him get through.

"

The day they had wondered, what's wrong with that boy?

Is he sick, is he injured, what's wrong with that boy?

Did he break his left arm, did he catch a bad flu?

The only thing wrong is that I'm not with you.

You've been with me through all, but now you are gone.

Don't know why I had trusted your love would grow strong.

I expected much better, the faith put in you.

Instead you betrayed me, this feeling is true.

The doctors once told me they saw me grow weak.

Don't know what that meant, but they say that they see.

Where the scans had gone wrong, I was sick as a dog.

And lately my sight has been fighting through fog.

They say try the chemo, your life it will save.

Don't care what they do, 'cause I've ordered my grave.

Don't care if I live, don't want a food tube.

The one thing I know is that I'll always love you.

They can stick me with needles, cut open my heart.

But the one thing that breaks me is us two apart.

The cancer will kill me, but I feel no man's pain.

I know I've been faithful, I've never complained.

you say that you love me, through skin you have lied,

Don't bother to show 'cause I've already died.
