I waited for you
To finish your cigarette
Another drag
Another orange swell
And everything we ever dreamed of
Had to wait
I waited for you
To cough it up
Another hack
Another lung convulsion
And everything we ever dreamed of
Had to change
I waited for you
To catch your breath
Another bench rest
Another thick wheeze
And everything we ever dreamed of
Faded on the horizon
I waited for you
To recover from chemo
Another iv
Another lethargic day
And everything we ever dreamed of
Had to happen in the next 6 months
I waited for you
To jump out of the casket
Another joke?
Another disappointment.
And everything we ever dreamed of
Had to stay buried in my heart
