(This is a suicide note... not for me... donn wrry)
These pieces of glass lay around me...
The very glass that pierces my eye...
The knife it sits right beside me...
The only witness to how I die...

Im afraid to get out of bed today...
Im afraid to face the gloom...
Im afraid to see the light of day...
Im afraid to leave my room...

I'm removing me from myself
Im removing me from the Earth
Im removing me from that shelf
On which Ive been left since birth

Why do you call me a coward?
I'm NOT afraid to DIE!
With all the tears I've showered
I shouldn't be asked why.

So I lay down in red
In red pools of blood
With a bullet through my head
6 feet under mud...

Don't ask me why....
But I've decided to die

I'm removing me from myself
Im removing me from the Earth

these lines according to me were the best...also the thought of calling someone a coward who has the courage to suicide is mind boggling.
