The Journey So Far
When I am gone, you won’t have much to worry about
You won’t have much heart-stress to stress about
You won’t have much wishes of death for me
You won’t have much elimination plans of various versions
In fact, the world might be a better place for you when I am gone
When I am gone, you will see the pages I have written on history walls
When I am gone, you might finally decide to start your life’s journey
When I am gone, may be my sorrow from my life will not be included in your book
In death I may not wish to live another day like Bond, James Bond
In death I may not wish to lie to the reality of my world
In death all witches will wish I never expose their evils
Your friends, family and even you backstabbers have spoken
They told you to stay away from me
They told you I blinded all your sight to the real world
And they said you should stay away from me so you could see clearly
Even when I was no longer with you, they expressed the devils wishes
Let me safe you from the misery I might have caused you and let you gain your freedom
Suicide stage was one hard race I have won,
Frankly I feel I have so much to give to the world and,
Sadly I have no rout to exit myself from your existence,
As I still stay awake on this planet.
