Description
I saw what you did

(I watched you)

You didn't see me
I think

if you had
would I be alive?

There was no blood, but
a life was taken
cruelly
brutally
swiftly

It's funny how a beating heart
can stop just like that
Still, yours is pounding

Is that fair?

I'm thinking about death now
more than what's healthy
Should I have been her?
my blood on the floor
my soul above us

I watched your crime
It was horrible
But…
if it had been me,

it could have been…beautiful

Right?

Perhaps…I should tell you
As a witness, you might eliminate me
I will have to think about that

So I'm pondering
Pensive
Week
after month
after year

Did you know -
that I watched you that day (long ago)
I saw everything
and I intend

to go to the police

(Will you stop me?
Please do)

Let me kiss my mom goodbye
Innocent, she mustn't know
Let her think that I'll be back
That's how I want to go

Yes, I watched you closely
And I will tell someone
But first, wrap your arms around me

The breath taken will now be mine
Silently, I'm much obliged
As all my cells begin to die

I whisper thank yous
In your ear
