Though I've become bound
And feel myself being pulled deeper
By the Grim Reaper's deadly chains
Into my emotional ocean of tears
Plus my own internal lake of blood
I'll try to remain strong and stay afloat
Long enough for me to finish this
Do not ever remember me
As sad, suicidal or depressed
Nor should you be shocked
When you find my bones undressed
Deep down below a pool of acidic fluids
But always do remember me
As funny, confident and talkative
Well mannered, wise and positive,
Not forgetting my contagious smiles
For as long as you'll all live,
For they weren't deceitfully displayed
Be happy not sad
For I am not dead
Just off to a better place
Where I'll find grandmother and dad
Far beyond, a very distant place
Where my dreams could not take me
Nor my own imagination permit me
For I no longer desire money, things or love
Nor do I look forward to what the future brings
So why keep living, if I'm just breathing
From dusk till dawn, from morning till evening
