Please Don't Die Today
please don’t die today the oak leaf is turning red mixed with a fiery orange, the outlooks grey but the temperature’s remain high so please don’t die today, I love you in ways I can’t explain and I’ve never expressed this verbally, it’s such a bastard to open up so, I bottle it up until I short circuit somewhere inside Do you remember when I lost my mind? you kept me alive and now it’s time to repay the favour, we’ve found ourselves in an unimaginable dilemma and when the cancer metastasises on your brain you won’t know who I am, so please don’t die today, I’ve written the best poem of my life about my wife and her intrinsic beauty that only I can see, I need to say “I’m sorry” for all the times I let my emotions get the better of me, so please don’t die today, the oak leaf is turning red mixed with a fiery orange, the outlooks grey but the temperature’s remain high so please don’t die today
