the last thing she said,
as she lay so quiet,
so dead,
was never let anyone bring you down,
it was hard to live with her,
harder to stay afloat,
in this moat,
almost like quicksand,
this all brings me down,
to where it lies,
it needs no description,
its there you see,
no perhaps you dont,
because your not guilty like me,
and im falling below,
the sand,
too late to help,
im not worth it anyway,
take her pain ,
keep it safe,
i might want it back someday

"Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone
I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."
