No. 2 Expired

Ramiro Reyna 2002 (Aurora)



No. 2 Expired

No tears to dry, those lifeless eyes,

It’s too late to say goodbye.

“Plink-Plink”

“Plink”

“Plink"

 

 

Skin, once warm, frostbite cold; lacking hue,

This isn't you.

 

Derived of life, in winter’s grasp

A fleeting breath, a final gasp.

I fucking hate that you passed.

 

“I love you” is never enough,

En...

Enough is never enough.  

 

I miss you so,  

That soft warm hug; fatherly love,

I’m out of luck; toughen up...

Toughen up.
