Was Not Meant For Me To Know
Drowning in my thoughts ~ so sinister so deep
Little locket box ~ for me to hold and keep
Secret personalities I choose to lock deep within my soul
Sometimes so insane ~ and sometimes so out of control!
Ambushed in his grave ~ he is locked away and lost
Chipped away and created his box an icy cold frost
Almost one whole month now my brother took his life
He finally could not take anymore pain and strife
The narcotics he used are still unsolved of what poisoned his veins
Or whether or not in the air a cold-blooded murderer reigns
His fiancee due in weeks with his baby girl
Angry, depressed, confused, & lost emotions the syringe did unfurl
In an ally disgusting and dirty his last breath rests
God have mercy on his soul ~ please make him blessed!
Please send him on his judgment way!
If anything in this world ~ for this is what I pray!
Still I ask myself a month later today,
Who or what could he have hated so much for him to not want to stay?
This mystery still unsolved puzzles me so
But I guess this mystery was simply for me not to know...
