Let me die

Tosher. 1994 (Brahmanbaria)



"Let me die"

I'm not in the mood
Oh! darkened deep! deepen as it could
Let me drown blown forever
In your deep eyes--ends never!
Oh! Lemme die! Lemme die!

I'm not in the wave
Oh! Successive shine! Reckless wine!
Don't pull me out
from those dreary caves.
Don't hear my scream! Howl; that seems grim,
Alone! Let me die! Let me die!
Let those leaves, twigs nipped off
brutally or whatever, let me put a stop!
