the first time you died, i nearly cried
the blood around your mouth made me sad
your hair in disarray
why'd you have to go and die today

i watched a sad sad movie
i thought that would teach me how to cry
cut my arm with a blade
bleeding and pain are not the same as crying

the next time you died
i almost nearly cried
a single tear squeezed from one eye
shaking hands plunged into sands
a glass sphere to protect you in the darkness after-death
