A letter of good-bye from a childhood dying.
Dear Whomever It Concerns,

I'm sitting on top of the world,
No one else is near.
They didn't want to listen,
And now they'll never hear.

It's a long and lonely road through hell,
I know no other way.
My day is coming soon my friends,
And then in heaven I'll play.

No one knew my hurt, my pain,
They never understood.
I prayed, I cried, I wished, and pled,
But it never did much good.

So as I write these words to see,
Since no one wants to hear.
Let me go out with a bang,
And make them very clear.......
          I lived in hell,
          I'm gone,
          Farewell.
And soon you all will say...........
          "I knew her",
          "I loved her",
          "I don't understand",
But it will be too late.

So now I go with no more words,
My last breath and soul rise above.
Take my advice and listen next time,
To the ones that need your love.

I have no more worries, I have no more fears.
My pain is finally at end.
Would it be different?, Could it be better?,
If I knew life, like I knew then.

My pain, it goes now, but there'll be more,
Of this I have no doubt.
There'll be others with this same grief,
Next time, don't shut them out!

Don't offer suggestions, Don't act like you know,
About their kind of pain.
Sometimes just listening can help save a life,
Don't let my death be in vain.

Forever Alone,
Nobody
