You left me a suicide note, now I must reply
Let me start by saying you didn’t have to die
If I’m opportune to see you again, I’ll ask you ‘why’
Why you had to leave without a goodbye
You said you wanted to end the pain
You said you wanted to remove the stain
You let all your life struggles go in vain
Now tell me, what have you gained?
You kept saying you are sorry
But I must say I’m not happy the way you ended your story
You promised to make history
But you died like a fruitless tree
You said you didn’t mean it
If only you waited one more minute
I’m saddened you didn’t think of tomorrow just one bit
Before you called it quit
All the promises I believed
All the love I received
Never knew I was deceived
You left and now I’m bereaved
You committed suicide
Forgetting those who stood by your side
Forgetting that I was there during the storm and the tide
I felt like a fool when I heard you died
You went too far, I must confess to you
I wish you could call to tell me it’s not true
I understand all you went through
This is why I’m writing this note to you
If you were going through hell, why didn’t you keep going?
If the world flipped you upside down, why didn’t you walk on the ceiling?
I was told the best angle to solve a problem is the try-angle
I wonder if you ever tried breaking free when you got entangled.
