“I love you”

Isn't it better to retire from life
than to die from stubbornness, pride
Shame and indignation kill more swiftly
Tell me, agree before you go so I can forgive
Your ignorance You try to twist what is
Beautiful and turn it ugly
You wilted on purpose instead of listening to me
Why give up when you crave my voice ordinarily.
If you leave now or rather soon
leaving me unheeded I might not be able to mourn you.
They will think me cold and unloving
But I told you all so I would hate to see you go 
You all made me a liar and the distance grew But tell me,
What a beautiful life it is the Blessing to become worn and frail
Wouldn't you say loved ones make the pain worthwhile
Say it so I don't choke on the words
I want them to flow easily and you want to hear them so
Quickly, to ease your passing for the two of us.
