I Die Alone

Why couldn't I have been disposed sperm & egg?
Turn back time, eliminate me, I beg!
All this angst fills my strained brain,
Whilst tribulation severs me insane.
If not for fear, I'd suicidally assert my second amendment,
Propose & execute a freeing, well-earned sentence.
Consumed by wrenching despair colder than bone,
I'll surely be happiest when I finally die alone.
