The endless bleakness

stretching beyond tall pine trees

I can breathe no more.

Grab the sugar!

Grab the salt!

Grab the Vodka!

Grab the Tequila!

Grab the whipped cream!

Whatever you grab, make it so darn good, that the lemon is undetectable!

And swallow it whole!

Life is way too short to be stopped by silly lemons!

Don’t cry for me

everybody dies

in their own time.

Impending death

does not scare me

going to a better place.

I live or die

by the choices I made.

Lethal injection

not an execution

but a murder!

I am not ending

but beginning.

I am afraid

to transition alone.

Will you be there

with me?

I am sorry

that I killed

your brother -

hope this brings closure.

I see sadness drip

from my family’s eyes but

I have peace in my heart

am ready for next journey.

I have new pants

with a zipper and buttons,

orange juice to drink.

Not a loss but a win!

We are not

that much different.

I am you

and you are me.

Peel back your skin

and you will see.

I'm pouring tears like kerosene

That leave us both saturated.

I moved mountains for this love

But you saw only flitting infatuation.

You're pouring your apologies

For wounds you cannot patch.

Bite your tongue and hold your breath

As I strike a match.

And ignite this raging inferno boiling over inside.

Neither one of us is making it out of this tragedy alive.
