Death Of A Lover

Standing over your headstone
reading it for the tenth time
Your in the ground where I put
you

Giving everything to you for
years without question
Jumping when you called my
name

Satisfying your bed when you
needed me to
Not for my sake but only for
your pleasure

My tears appear stinging my
eyes
This will be the only time I
shed them for you

Is it for you though
Maybe I cry mostly for me
and a pinch for you

I was your lover more
then you were mine

When I'm dead and gone
I'll be tossed into the wind
Free from rotting in the
ground

Alone you will be in that
plot
With the bugs and snakes
keeping you company
