Sweet Suicide

The cold, wet earth embraces my body
As I lie buried here under the burning stars.
Six feet below is where I placed myself
Staring silently at the dark, gray night.
The moon never looked so close.
Death is near,
and my whole life flashes before me.
Slowing down as it got to you.
The first time I drowned within your gentle eyes,
The first time I saw your beautiful face.
Your hands I longed to hold.
My heart calling out to you,
wishing you could hear its
Every beat offered to you.
But the cruel hands of faith started
To weave its deadly web.
Allowing our paths never to cross.
I stare at you from afar,
bewitched by your enchanting smile.
You hold the hands of another.
The one you truly love.
I smile knowing you would be happy with him,
I cry knowing I wanna be with you.
Deep inside I slowly die.
I lie slowly fading beneath this heavenly body, the soft earth
Eating its way through my skin.
I closed my eyes one last time,
Trying to burn your face within my mind,
Afraid that Death will allow me to forget.
I hold tight at memories of you,
Knowing you were my sweet suicide.....
