Suicide Mosquitoes

*Trigger Warning – Suicidal Content*

 

Today you would have been fifty-two

Instead the doctor took away my blue

Pills and made me start the yellow

But I don’t feel like yellow

I feel like blue

Memories of you

Pinching at my heart

Suicide mosquitoes buzzing

Round my head

Today you would have been fifty-two

Instead it’s a gray kind of day

Cigarette meditation

Deep breathing smoke cuz yellow

Pills don’t bring

Medication mellow

Fill my lungs with your last breath

My prayers are a crime against humanity

So I whisper into empty ashen hands

Today you would have been fifty-two

Instead you are dead
