Euthanize Me
The trees on Emberz Peak spit on their
own roots
playing with their own bouquet of fury
Seeing this, seeing me go out this way
euthanize me
I felt your dust storms 1500 miles
away
You hollow stray of comet,
I've seen your light, so dank and gray
You all lie, the world lies, and so do I
I slept with my arsonist last full moon, his shaft only leaves me empty like the others in my past lives
he gifted me the selfish fire
How dare he? Do they ever appreciate me?
I rose from the bedsheets and he still lays besid me.
His lighter stole the wisps of my last reincarnation
without mercy, but with lust
I step onto the sand
Outside, all the childrens' heads lie in the circle
They've come for me!
They are me! Someone save me!
No......I have to let them have me now
It's my time
I look back and my lover's still asleep
There's nothing here left
so euthanize me.
