A Life Long Wait
Location
They aren’t living, they’re avoiding death
Life is shabby and death is graceful
They can’t see life as a death wish
A wish to be living at your death
When I die I’ll be falling
Past the windows and suits to open grey arms
I’ll be screaming and cutting
My inner thoughts dripping out
I’ll be painting when I go
My white walls, with a single bang,
Come to life as my life ends
I’ll be laughing, I’ll be dreaming
But I won’t be crying
While I’m dying I’ll be smiling
I’ll be dying but I won’t close
My eyes and drift away
I’ll make death trip up and find a way
To catch me to take me to beat me
I can’t wait for death’s sweet grip
Cause I’ll have called his name
