some wish for wealth

others for fame

but I, I am different

I lay there

Maybe a stray bullet will somehow

lose its way straight into my head.

and I could leave, forever,

run away and hide

and the endless tears would cease

as i lose feeling

No more strife, no more regrets

no worrying about tomorrow

or my decisions of days past.

No anger, no hate,

for myself or any other.

If only it was as easy as this

but there's so much more to it all

my parents, my friends, the people i love

i might do it to myself, but i can't do this to them.

this love is ridiculous.

it's not fairytales, or prince charmings,

but it is real.

it is my parents, who i just can't hurt this way

my friends, who always have and always will be there

it's strength through their confidence

in me

my decisions

everything i am and could be.

that somehow my story would end, it can
