in the summer of 1999 i learned that death was coming
it came for my fish and it would come for me
like a can of tetra flakes
and in that summer it was dead and it was dreary
in the summer of 1999
yea the following winter i was six
my parents left to shovel snow
it was dark outside and the glass was thick
i couldn't see them anymore
and i convinced myself they'd never make it home
til then i'd never felt more alone
in the fall of 2002 death took my mother's cousin
i watched her put the phone on the TTY,
receipts trailing on the floor
and i felt the heaviness of every word she wrote
melissa wasn't gonna make it home
when i was nine i thought i'd try to really comprehend
the thought that i would someday die and so would all my friends
and by wintertime my mom would find the cancer in her chest
she said it was fine

i didn't show up to my meeting today
they all were counting on me to be there
and in my absence i slowed business today
my boss threw a fit & said he'd cut me
he has to find someone new to replace me
i didn't show up to my final today
it cost me almost half of my grade
i can almost see the look on my instructor's face
he has to put an F on my transcript
i'm sure he's concerned for my future
to see me sitting in his class next semester
i didn't return any calls or emails today
i know that i'm pissing off the world
i'm inconveniencing all their selfish little lives
but i swear i didn't mean to die today
