I Tried To Die

Contributor: Lyla Sommersby

- -
I tried to die
in your arms
in your eyes
in your heart

I tried to die
on your floor
on your lap

on the way
to heaven
you caught me
threw me back

threw me
into your car
as I threw up
the pills
threw up
the future
I thought I wanted.

I tried to die
while I could still keep you
but now
I can only try
to live
through the days
without you.
