Why?

by nathan   Mar 20, 2008


Drip; drip; drip,
My blood slowly splatters to the ground.
As it begins to pool,
My lips try to form a sound.

"Why?" is all I can ask.
Why couldn't I make this life last?
Did I try too hard? Or just not enough?
In the end, I guess I just wasn't very tough.

People pass by, starting to scream.
Sure, they care now, once I've begun to leave this cosmic dream.
My vision starts to fade, the dripping begins to slow.
A smile spreads across my face, I begin to finally know.

It's all over now, down to my last breath.
Goodbye all my friends, sorry I failed the final test.
I'll see you again someday, but for now I'm finally at rest.
