Lairyck Beliveau Poet Rhyme

The Vigil

I just wanted you to know that I love you, I did my best to do what's right,

It took from me my ego, I gained long and sleepless nights,

I just want you to know I miss you, and I tried my very best,

But the world is old and broken, a toxic angry mess,

Someday I'll make a difference, because I refused to simply quit,

For everything that I have lost, my broken heart still fits,

I know you didn't leave me, you've simply gone ahead,

In truth, I wish that I had left, the toxic world instead,

I wouldn't quit tomorrow, and I couldn't quit tonight,

for every other one I saved, gave reason for this life.

I wasn't born so healthy,  I wasn't born to wealth,

I was born to go with god, and help those with no one else.
