I'll play the role of the cellphone, you play the dead zone... since I'm constantly searching for a signal when you are near. Using up all of my energy, down to the last bar. I'm setting a privacy lock on myself so you can only turn me on. Take me to a place where I can get good reception. Recharging is so ordinary. Drain the life from me. Throw me in the lake when you're done.
I'm just another regular decorated emergency. You are a case study for everyone in the medical field.
I have childhood blood on my hands that even the chlorine couldn't erase. Still waiting for him to resurface, I'll be keeping watch over the nearest body of water. Draining all sinks and bathtubs, brushing soap suds and bubbles to the side reaching for his hand.

Their grip on my shoulders shaking me for an answer I still don't have. Memories of mumbling words to an officer as they rolled you away. The sheets were wet and shown through. Our last goodbye. Red White and You. So much hatred for the deep END.
Today we're lighting candles for you... but instead of being on the top of cakes, our flames are resting a top Bible's opened to your favorite verse. I'm burning 2. One atop your verse, and one atop of Proverbs 28:17 for me.
