I DON'T BELONG HERE
I don't belong here,
I want to go,
I must exit your mist,
For with my exit,
There may be the entrance of one-
One who can live up to your expectations
You all wish for the opposite of me,
You seldom say it,
But it is quite blatant
How eager you await my death
And now upon the deathbed, I lay,
With nothing but a spirit,
One of distress and weariness,
I know you are happy,
Wherever you are.
