Love Poem: Poison

Poison

As I lay here dieing I wonder,
 What I would have done 
If you had talked to me

If only you would have talked to me 
I would not be lying here dieing 
I would not have drank that poison
I would not have wondered what you think about me

Now I realize what I have done 
I do not want to die
I want you to know I love you

I run to the phone 
I call the hospital
The words won’t come out

The poison is in my blood
My heartbeat slows
My breathing harsh
In a minute, I’ll be gone
Don’t forget me and remember, 
I loved you 

You walk in the door too late
You watch me take my last breath
Please don’t cry
It’s not your fault
Don’t cry
Goodbye
