FINAL BREATH

Raven333

Know matter the price,

It's you

Who always pays,

In every situation

Day after day.

How much more,

Is going to be asked of me

How much more of me,

Is everyone going to take.

Walking as your laughing,

Leaving me alone

Where I lay.

Always doing for others

I would rather,

See a smile

Than wipe a tear,

From your eye.

Disrespect

I can not handle,

I also hate a lie.

These things,

I refuse

To sit and tolerate.

Nothing that am needing,

From you

I'll never ask.

How much more,

Won't someone

Please tell me,

Because this smile

Is fading fast.

Anger jumps right on me,

Yet still

I manage to smile.

I have no where to put it,

No longer

Can I push it down.

Understanding others

Is what am here for,

It comes natural..

That's what I do.

But you never treat me,

Like I have been

Treating you.

Some people

Will face the music,

Admit

To when they are wrong.

Others

Are constantly right,

Admission

Is no where in their song.

So now

I will leave you,

As one day

I will leave in death,

The earth will lose

An angel..

When I take

My Final Breath.

        Emotive words Tammy but that smile that you have will always be with you as you do have good things in your life, just keep them to the front of your mind.
