Didn't Know How To Ask
Didn't Know How To Ask
Got a letter just the other day
and the writing was you
hello and is life treating you well?
down below the pleasantries
a message that screamed from the ink
the words registered but I couldn't think
it read so eerie, cloaked in desperation
and it said....
if this reaches you please come to me
behind all my smiles that I radiate
I finally have discovered the truth
because I act so happy people can't seem to tell
and I thought of all the people in this world
you would pick up the sense
I am drowning in hell
maybe you were to afraid to ask
maybe you didn't want to step on my feelings
maybe you just assumed and never thought, I understand
to often in situations I did
but now the silence engulfs me
and the love I held has evaporated
you are my last true friend
so my pride wouldn't let me tell
until now when I am on my last seconds
until I didn't care how I felt
until I stopped running through these motions
I finally realize I need help
so find me, find me....call me now
if I answer you know I have hung on somehow
but if you call and you find no answer
this device I hold has taken my life
and I now reside in the coldest of places
death.....
