Dear Death, - Vesuvius[00:00:00]
Dear death[00:00:01]
How have you been[00:00:04]
It's been awhile since I've felt your warmth envelope my skin[00:00:07]
Sometimes I hear your whisper echo between my sheets[00:00:14]
Or let your poems whisk me off to sleep[00:00:20]
Do you miss me[00:00:25]
The scent of smoke drifting from my clothes[00:00:28]
Like a perfume that you loathe[00:00:32]
But cherish when you're alone[00:00:34]
And I can't say the same[00:00:37]
Your grasp once swallowed me whole now I'm okay[00:00:40]
Now I'm okay[00:00:46]
Dear death[00:01:01]
I hear your knuckles graze my door[00:01:04]
The winter months have reached their crux[00:01:08]
I'm sure you long for warmth[00:01:11]
But the corners of my conscious suffer to let me know[00:01:14]
That if you lay a minute in my bed[00:01:20]
It'll be so hard to see you go[00:01:23]
And did you love me[00:01:25]
I swear I never meant to do you wrong[00:01:28]
You saw right through me all along[00:01:31]
And even if your body felt like home[00:01:35]
And your essence is in all I am and all I know[00:01:39]
Maybe I'm just better off alone[00:01:45]
And how am I supposed to sleep at night[00:01:50]
Knowing that your ghost is waiting for me on the other side[00:01:53]
And I will keep my head above the surface until your rivers run dry[00:02:01]
These brittle bones harness the strength to fight[00:02:08]
You may consume every piece of me[00:02:26]
Just leave me be[00:02:33]
And when you turn your back on me[00:03:26]
And tell me I'll die alone[00:03:29]
I feel everything you've taken[00:03:31]
In the marrow of my bones[00:03:35]
What if I never loved you[00:03:38]
What was I to say[00:03:41]
If you sacrifice what is most dear to me[00:03:44]
As a plea for me to stay[00:03:47]
And I'm sorry that it must end this way[00:04:01]
But now I'm okay[00:04:07]
