Dear Boyfriend,
Sweetheart,
23rd day in hell
and I'm under some spell
I swallowed their pills.
Sweetheart,
these days that are left, I count
every knife's a way out
every rope: a noose.
Sweetheart,
this place is frying my brain
I punch these fists into the steel
but there's no escape
from these cold bars.
Sweetheart,
this could be our final goodbye
they could poison me tonight
or stick me with a needle 'til I close these eyes.
But sweetheart,
I still love you
no matter what those drugs do
no matter how they tell me to live and think and love
I still love you.
Your dear Boyfriend
