My Death Wish
My death wish
Death may come faster
Than I expected,
Family,
I know I am nothing but a burden,
I can see it in your eyes.
Please stay away from my funeral
With your vial tongues
Your insane minds
and your want for attention.
When my death comes
Please look at my body,
See what you have done,
Years of depression
With illegal drugs in my lungs,
Alcohol in my throat
and scars all over my body.
As your mind wonders
Go find my father
That I've been wanting to meet for fifteen long, painful years,
Tell him I'm finally gone
and that he can burn in Hell for leaving me stranded for so long.
This may seem harsh,
But who said life was always pleasant?
