Cemetery


if you love me let me go

your words: an axe to my throat

blood is fucking everywhere

you ripped it out of me

what happened to forever

all those fucking promises

that didn’t mean anything

 

if you love me let me go

your words: my note

written in the ink you spilled

out of my veins

 

if you love me let me go

your words: your regret

written in the eulogy

you ripped from your chest
