Why Mary?

Why so suddenly violently ill?

Right after going to our special place

Silent Hill

Your beautiful skin

Turning into scales

Your lovely hair

Becoming like straw

I understand why you're jealous of the nurses

I understand why you lash out at the doctors

The drugs don't work

They're just making you worse

I know you want to go back to Silent Hill

One more time

Before your inevitable death

Let's go to the Lakeview Hotel

One last time

I love you, Mary

And I'm sorry

Sorry I smothered your life and love away

But now I know what to do in order to see you again

Toluca Lake
