"To Sleep There Forever, How Ill Miss Thou"

My paper heart was ripped to shreds today
I Placed it on display in this menagerie
You told me you'd be my tape forever and tonight
But thats not longer for snow came with winter
Carcinogen filled your lungs and took you away
But take solace in this, I'll live my life to the fullest
You will always be a silhouette on the my wall
I wont forget the reason I live each day
So heres a Serenade for you at this last dance
I feel no joy as people explode in euphoria
Only a feeling of longing for what i could not do
If only they took a gun to this reaper
I'd scream for the death penalty

For i plee for a vaccine
Maids draped in black lay dead roses on your bed
To sleep there forever, how ill miss you
Keep in mind through every little moment and every emergency
and even if the oxygen escapes me or i drown in my sleep
Ill remember you at every sunset, and every sunrise.

Aw, it almost made me cry. :]

It's very emo, very good, but these two lines seemed out of place to me:

If only they made a weapon to kill cancer
I'd scream louder than any banshee to be heard

The weapon to kill line should be a metaphor, I think...
And another word for banshee maybe should be used...

Title could be...A Sunrise to Kill

I love it, flows nicely, great imagery, everything. the only thing i might change is this line
To sleep there forever, how ill miss thou
i'd change thou to you, just because "thou" just seemed to kind of stick out for me, the rest of it flows so well, and it just seemed out of place. Pretty much the only thing that I wasnt crazy about in the song. props for writing such a good one.
