Tonight’s the Night, I Die

Tonight's the night,

I die, cold clutching

Myself on the right

Of our bed, memories flooding.

Tonight's the night,

I die, tossing, turning, praying.

First time in many years.

Lord, forgive me for straying.

Tonight's the night,

I die, my stubborn self

Returns religion, comes crawling

Back to thyself.

Tonight's the night,

I die, soaked sheets

From blood, tears and spite.

Your warmth would be nice,

Drown out my worthless wailing.

Tonight's the night, I die.

Inspired by Hannah Banhg’ song “Tonight’s the night I die to a Frank Ocean song.
