My Turn

I never meant to be alive 
I never meant to realize
I never meant to be unwise
I never meant to be despised
I never meant to tell you lies
I never meant to make you cry 
Now its my turn to say good-bye

Well that says it all I love each line simple in form but powerful to the point! Laura :)
