when i was dying
i think it is really fucked up
to start a sentence like this
everyone complimented me
on slowly turning to ashes
'you look so pretty dear'
they said
and i heard
'try harder'
when someone is suffering
from lung cancer
you don't light them a cigarette
you don't
you don't hand a suicidal person
a loaded gun
unless you want them to die
so why did you?
why did you hand me a gun?
what was i supposed to do with it?
besides pulling the trigger
when you are sixteen
and at some point
we all are
nothing is as easy as dying
without anyone noticing
dying isn't like it is in the movies
a 60 second sequel
with blood and wounds and lots of noise
it is quiet a long-term-process
you do not recognise the dead
