Analysis of Let me die

Tosher. 1994 (Brahmanbaria)



"Let me die"

I'm not in the mood
Oh! darkened deep! deepen as it could
Let me drown blown forever
In your deep eyes--ends never!
Oh! Lemme die! Lemme die!

I'm not in the wave
Oh! Successive shine! Reckless wine!
Don't pull me out
from those dreary caves.
Don't hear my scream! Howl; that seems grim,
Alone! Let me die! Let me die!
Let those leaves, twigs nipped off
brutally or whatever, let me put a stop!
