I Can Wait

"I fear I can't go on" she said

"I think I would be better dead"

She knelt, she cried, and I held her hand

I thought I knew what she was feeling

She turned to close a door and I

Assisted in a suicide

Now that she's on the other side

I know what she was after

And I, I, I can wait

Yes, I, I, I can wait

A cold and wet November's day

We lowered her into a grave

I'd never seen her look so brave

Now worms consume her body
