My love, oh my love please god no

My love, you have woken me in middle of the night and I don't know why
I open my eyes in the dark
Something is wrong in the dark

 

My love, my only light, you speak to me and I don't know if I can trust your voice
It sounds as if someone forces you
Is it you? Is it you?

 

My dearest sweetheart, my precious when I reach out and touch your hand it is cold
Oh my love please god no
It is dead, in the night

 

My precious, why after 3 years have you left me with no warning and why do you speak
In the night, in the dark
In someone else's voice

 

My love, the light is on now and I have knocked over our bedside lamp and you move
Something drags your corpse
Across the floor

 

My love
My love, oh my love please god no
Your cold body rests now in the night, in the corner of our room

This poem was inspired by the song "Is It You" by Wumpscut.
