Voices

The voices are getting louder, but the pain is gonna end.
I don't wanna be a burden to my one and only friend.
  The blood is getting darker, my visions so unclear.
I tried to tell the doctor she said: "It's just a phase, my dear".
   As I lie here I murmur I love you in my final breath.
You were always there for me, now your like the rest.
   The voices are but a whisper as I inescapably start to fade.
At least I can say I made the pain of this life go away.
