I DIED

And you're alone
all alone on your own
for weeks now crying
yourself half dying
there's little left
now after my death
for you to live for
nothing like before
me for you you for me
and I'm really sorry
I beat you to death's door
that I was the one who won
as we neared the end of our run
that I was the first to go
I know you miss me so
that I'm not with you there
that it was you who had to bear
this deepest of all sorrow-
you always wanted to be first
we both knew what was worse.
