One True Friend
My friend I am glad to see you
talking to someone helps so much
I didn't know what else to do
so comforting is your touch
No one else understands me quite like you
my existence fading ,I can't go on
not knowing what shall prove true
as I live this con
All this pain is just too great
it must stop this day
So many seem so full of hate
why must it be this way
The bottle and you are all I need
the bottle gives me strength
upon your words I feed
Are you sure this is the action I must take
you're right I must be strong
for me will any hearts break
and why do I feel so wrong
unbending in your words
I am now fully convinced
with none of my pleas heard
I have spoken with no one since
Tears now, they should not weep
my soul is wonderfully lifted
for eternity I will sleep
I truly am so gifted
I am grateful for you
my cold steel friend
pulling your trigger
and welcoming the end.....
