Subject: The process of love in one's life as you grew older 


Let her go

Let her stay

Stay with me

Stay alive

Alive inside

Alive yet dying

Dying alone

Dying for love

Love me purely

Love me not

Not enough reason 

Not enough feeling

Feeling of being alone

Feeling of egregious words

Words to cry for

Words that can denigrate 

Denigrate our love

Denigrate our trust

Trust him more than me

Trust not our legacy

Legacy to build

Legacy to destroy

Destroy the demagogue

Destroy our foundation

Foundation of convivial 

Foundation of our family

Family to love

Family to leave

Leave without cognizant

Leave memories behind

Behind the bars

Behind you

You are a disparate human

You can dispel 

Dispel doubts with life

Dispel doubt in your heart

Heart to wreck

Heart to fix

Fix yourself

Fix your life

Life to leave

Life to live

Live to survive

Live to die

Die with pride

Die inside

Inside the cell

Inside the hell

Hell...

Cell...
