Cursèd life

You sucked the melancholy heart

from my cursèd body

drank the treacherous blood

from my hardened veins

retched the black bile

from my pensive spleen

ripped the calm phlegm

from my very breath

but I am still here

alive and happy to die.

This is a sort of bitter pill Jon - highly descriptive and gut wrenching. I hope it is just the work of imagination !
