 tired... and really just need to be gone,

to places where babies are glad they are born,

to sunshine and laughter, umbrellas for rain,

where loss is a nightmare, reality is gain.

i'm lonely... so badly in need of an ear,

just someone... perhaps to pretend that they care,

it's crazy, who ever knew life would be this,

... death in a hug and deceit in a kiss.

i'm ready, remove it... this heart from my chest,

in death i'm assuming i'll be at my best,

i'm failing this test, losing tears as i cry,

i ask why am i living... i received no reply...
