It wasn't over

It wasn't over-We were nowhere near over
We fought and made up
We cried and we gathered up the tears
In a desperate attempt to stop the other crying
We grasped at collecting tears
That could never be collected

We made love, and it was intense
Tore at each other like we were
Trying to stay alive-Skin on skin melting
As we took each other apart-While trying to stay together

Then we fought again
Tore at each other like we were
Trying to make the other hurt
Skin on skin tortured-As we took each other apart
While trying to stay together

But it wasn't over-till you took your life
Now it's over for us both
I'll be there soon
