“Dear Death, Do you remember my first heartbreak? I know you knew its my 3rd In my year at 28 But this one gave me a hard time and enormous heartache Remember that day I became so wasted and I felt more than a loser The time that I really cant get over I knew you were there. Youve seen how I abused myself As if someone cares?! I simultaneously smoke weed I became so damn alcoholic Until it reached the point that I hurt myself I know its pathetic When I cut my wrist and bleed to death But you just stand there till some friends came to help You still let me live. Its not my time yet¦”
