she placed pinpricks in my heart while i slept
to let all my love for her pour out
as if her cold corpse
could drain my last drop dry
her house is silent now
as is mine about it
i hold her roommate sisters close
but not one of us dare make a sound
just the hint of a spectral passing
the tiniest ghost with the biggest bravest heart
i told her time and time again
i’d be lost without her
here i am at the crossroads and the cliff
and i taste truly i spoke the truth
i feel flat as i found her
and about as empty
i pray to my god of the deep
that she finds her heaven or whatever she asks for
and leave myself to thrash for sleep
my heart just shaking to keep itself from breaking to pieces
