I’ve often wondered what life would be like
If I had the ability to take off in flight.
Soaring high above enjoying the freedom.
Forgetting life’s problems. Lord knows I don’t need’em.
I’ve tried to hold on to what little is left.
My life seems pointless as I endure this new quest.
With age upon me, younger years now past,
How long must I endure this? How long will this last?
Forced to live daily with stress, heartache, and pain.
They’re now my companions that drive me insane.
Too young to pass over; too old for another.
The darkness now comes. My soul it must smother.
This hole in my heart leaves a shell of a man.
Wanting death to come take me and shorten life’s span.
I’ve tried to hold on with head held high,
Believing it would be better. Yes, I fell for the lie.
Searching and planning for ways to bring forth the end.
That I may soar unto heaven to be with my best friend.
This lonely life that I now live
Has broken me down, nothing left to give.
Take your hand? Please, don’t you dare.
I’ve nothing to offer for I no longer care.
Stoic and numbness are now my demeanor.
Once loving and caring; now colder and meaner.
Bring forth the weapon for my destruction.
No help needed for this self-induction.
The book of life with pages worn.
Transcribed my name on pages torn.
The book of death with pages new.
No explanation needed; not even a clue.
The time has come for this life to end.
Open the heavens and let my soul in.
I’ve often wondered what life would be like
If I had the ability to take off in flight.
Soaring high above enjoying the freedom.
Forgetting life’s problems. Lord knows I don’t need’em.
