I Welcome Death

I don't understand why people think I'm crazy

For wanting riddance

For wanting silence

All of this is just defiance

For wanting death to overcome me!
 

I desire it so just for the pain to cease

My tears to dry

My soul to fly

My heart to pry

Finally open, letting pain out and in comes peace

 

Mourn for those who are born to this world and celebrate those who are gone to glory

I just want you to understand me, so please listen carefully to my story

 

I can understand why one embraces death so very much

People are cruel

You are the fool

They use as a tool

To make you them by pulling you from sanity of which you clutch

 

Then there's the inerasable horrid pain that constantly repeats

Through the ripples

Of time that triples

The agony that cripples

My heart, mind, body, and soul that now I'm concrete

 

I didn't choose to be here, but I chose to stay this long

Why am I here?

Purpose, come here!

Is Destiny not near?

I choose my Fate and death won't any longer be prolonged

 

Mourn for those who are born to this world and celebrate those who are gone to glory

Do you understand what I'm saying now? If not, just listen carefully to my last story

 

There is no right or wrong when it comes to one's own choice of death

Society, however,

Says you should never

Or else you're not clever

To greet the Angel of Death early in life at the end of your last breath

 

I welcome death with a plan that I devised that's no turning back

I'll let you know

How this will go

Does death not flow?

I change my mind! I want to live! I see the Grim Reaper dressed in all black!

 

Mourn for those who are born to this world and celebrate those who are gone to glory

I just wanted to be understood. I regret dying early. So don't ever repeat my story.
