Sweet Suicide/Drowning in Honey

Sweet Suicide 
     -then this longing 
          for you 
Would be done 
     -One bullet 
          more or less 
          to the head 
Would kill the heart 
          as well 

Then this longing 
     for you 
     would be done 
This crazy love gone-
Things back to normal 
     again 
(but I'd be dead)

I hate you 
     for causing 
          This pain 
This heart writhing slowly 
     in its 
          opening 
I hate you for being 
     close to me 

For allowing 
     this love 
     to build 

Yell at me 
     shove me 
          away 
Do not say 
     such sweet things 
     as you do 
If you open 
     another damned 
          door 
     for me- 
I will scream 

I will fall 
     at your feet 
     and wail 

What black magic 
     is this 
     What Svengali
What Sorcerer's 
     Apprentice
are you?

To take this lonely 
     freedom 
and trap it 
and tame it 

I rebel 

I will not be caught 
    in this velvet net 
    I will resist it 

To drown in honey 
was not part 
     of my plan 

Damn you-
I cannot 
     run 



(and I wouldn't miss 
this - for the world)
