Kill Bill

Casey Domingo 2008 (Port Elizabeth)



Kill Bill

a Love so deep, like when he swept me off my feet
Like when he took me right into his arms, like he was about to cuddle me
Like when he placed his right hand on my head, erasing every good memory
When he pretended that there's nothing left, he left
               he left, he set me free

But
With a love so warm and cold, I could not help but get a little sick
Like when my eyes were red and teary, a few sticks I had to click

Like a Sirius star falling from the sky, my time was up
I had to die,
In order for me to stay alive,
I had to kill my love : alive.
