Why Don'T You Follow

I am under six feet deep Laying peacefully asleep Unaware of how you feel I won't get up on my heels. I gave you enough chance You didn't notice, not once; I won't go out of my bed I was breathing but good as dead. Now why bring foods I can't eat? You know I used to like treats And I would've appreciated kind words- When I was feeling like a caged bird. You heard me but you didn't listen You comprehended when my eyes glistened But you didn't lend a helping hand So I went to fulfill what I long planned. Dear do not put the blame on you Like you were concerned for me too I'm gone for good now you know If you're sorry then why don't you follow?
