A prayer to

Dead to me three times over

I wanted you gone

So I locked you in a corner and swallowed your key 

of despair 

But it’s funny that without you I couldn’t 

 

feel myself living

 

When I finally find rest in your arms

I hope you kill my regrets and free my soul,

So I can truly know you
