The room’s spinning out of control,
I fall down to the floor.
I couldn’t seem to face the things,
I faced a time before.
I look down at what I’ve done,
The tears begin to well.
To think I’ll never laugh again,
I’m going straight to hell.
My strength begins to leave me,
I cannot raise my arm.
A single thought that comforts me,
I’ll do no more harm.
My vision’s getting blurry,
I lie and ponder this.
From nothing I go to nothing,
Thus nothing will I miss.
Except to watch a child grow,
To watch a sparrow sing.
To fall in and out of love again,
To see my dreams take wing.
To make my parents proud of me,
Of what I had become.
To see my girlfriend smile at me,
To watch a leopard run.
The pain begins to numb now,
My failure on my arm.
My feelings wash away from me,
A strange and quiet calm.
I realise I don’t want to die,
Not yet, not here, not now.
Too late my last thought tells me,
My head begins to bow.
It’s wasted, all the love in me,
All the hopes and dreams.
The passion that once filled me,
Flows from me in streams.
A close friend may have stopped me,
From this early, wasteful death.
Someone had but loved me,
And saved my final breath.
It’s gone now, and such a shame,
It could have been prevented.
If someone had only held me,
Said “I love youâ€. And meant it.
Don’t waste the friendships you hold today, or you may lose them tomorrow.
