This Life Wasn'T Meant For Me

I hate who I turned into I don't know who to turn to I don't want to look anybody in the eyes except for him to ask how or why Can't handle the pain inside Feels almost like life's based off lies I can no longer pretend I'm happy inside Everyday I look forward to the day I die No word of a lie I'm excited to die It's life's only guarantee It would finally give me peace This life wasn't meant for me Think I'm a coward so it will be I want to do this for me I need peace

I was at death's door once because of an illness, lyme disease had attacked my brain and spinal cord; I had thoughts how easy it would be to just die, although I did not say a word to my mom, some how she knew, and she weeped at my bedside and begged me to not give up and live. I always had a weakness for someone crying, espessially my mom...I chose life. ~ Peace :)

A great poem, but I pray it is only a poem -- one that lets the reader see that in death, there is peace and for we who have accepted Christ, it is a new beginning of a different life -- one that lasts for eternity in Heaven! See your Soup Mail
