32(Arnold Melleby, 01.31.2025)


how can you waste away

when I love you

how dare you

when you know I love you

there`s no heaven up there

it`s right here


turn the blind eye

and look in another direction

so selfishly

once you were gone

that`s all we were

just a bunch

of blind eyes


with the needle as your compass

it took you nowhere further

than the next fix

to keep you healthy

to keep you normal

to cope


leaving us

at a grave

a tombstone 

and the flowers

that your friends

and family

leave

as the flower 

you were

when you left 

us


way too early

a shot in your veins

cleared the way

for your untimely death

32


rest in peace, beloved brother

tears
