Breathe

Breathe for me, dearest one...
Before to long, i will be gone...
I choose to leave, this world behind...
Stand back, separate, no need to change my mind...
This wasnt my intentions, as my days began...
I wanted to rise above life, be the bigger man...
But strength is needed, when you try to topple pain..
And i have no powers, and no more can i maintain...
With no remorse, i leave you...to fight this world alone...
And make this land a more beautiful place, once i am gone...
Lay me in the grave, or spread my ashes in the sea...
because is the last wish, for the broken fool known as me...
