A body in lace.
A plain, cold, white face.
Why can’t I see
That I’m looking at me?
The faces around me
Would look down in shame.
At the pain that I’ve caused them.
So I want to explain.
That I just can’t go on living.
Go on living like this.
I know I must end it
There’s nothing to miss.
I am dead deep inside.
I have nothing to give.
I just want to sleep.
I don’t want to live.
My fingers are numb.
My head starts to ache.
The end has begun.
How long will it take?
I know they will smile.
I know it’s the best
It may take a while.
But please lay me to rest.
So goodnight to my dear ones
I’ll see you again.
I’ll be happy in heaven
And free from this pain.
