On The Inside/Outside

If I died on the
outside
could you still hear
my heart beat?
If I were barely alive
could you save me from
the place my soul began to die?

And if I died on the
inside
could you still hear
me speak?
If I were to touch your skin
could you bring me
back again?

And if I died on the
outside
could you find
my mind?
If I were to breath my sickness into you
could you drink me down,
swallow me by the spoonful?

And if I die on the
inside
could you still hear
my fear?
If I were to drown in your eyes
could you be my paper angel
and pretend life has no good-byes?
