Too Difficult

By PaperPromises

My angel's stressed from me
I caught her with 4 cups of pure black coffee
She was drowning herself in a cigarette
8 more gone, I could smell it.

Smelled to me like over-due fatigue
I knew it was all because of me
So the next time I catch my angel on a cigarette break
I'll end this life that's such a messed-up mistake.

I watched her as she exhaled the nicotene
Her hands trembling as she sipped the coffee
It's all my fault that she's such a mess
So I'll put this fucked-up life to a fatal rest.

Her hair all scraggy, her eyes bloodshot
I'm too blame that she's so distraught
My angel, good-bye, thanks, and I'm sorry
I understand it was just too difficult to watch over someone like me.

Closed your eyes and now's my awaited chance
The sky is dark velvet, I watch the stars last dance
As it falls from the sky, the knife falls to the floor
My angel, it's not your fault that I cease to exist anymore.

Don't cry now as you realize I'm dead
Don't shudder at the sight of the flowing trail of red
I'm better off this way, and you are too
It's best that this so-called life is finally through
And, hush it's not your fault
I was just too damned difficult.
