Why?, poem by Signe Robertson, 2008 When you broke my heart It turned into dust See, my love is fire Yours, just ashes on the dirty ground Think twice Before you walk away It may be easy on you But where am I to go? Now I've reached the sky After all this time I've tried I found it was only a painting The clouds, merely plastic bags So I feel strangely reborn Like a freshly diseased corpse I'm not living anymore Just staying alive My first mistake was being born My second was not dying Would you miss me if I died? I feel dead already Do you miss me already? I am right here! Yet you are far away Why? |
