Laying on the couch, depressed and alone
You couldn't even show up when I needed you the most
I'm laying here cold and in denial
That cancer has invaded my space.
You're so self absorbed you couldn't show up for me
So here I am dying alone
I always thought life would be different...
I was good and kind
But here i am dying alone
Without a soul to give a damn
I held all my patient's hands when they were passing on
But not a soul to return the gesture
Maybe I wasn't kind enough...
Tears slip down my cheeks
As the oxgyen flows freely through my nose
I wonder who in the world will care when I'm gone.
Who will think about me ever so often or will i just be a unjust burden off everyone's chest?
Who will cry at my funeral, or will say a few kind words of remembrance?
But here I lay cold and so scared to die without a soul to hold my hand or kiss me goodbye
I wonder how long it will take them to find out the cancer has won and that I lie here dead in my home?
Breathing is getting harder now
My phone never rings
I am gasping now
So I close my eyes and give in to dying alone
As I take my last breath I hear a knock on my door....
Its too late though I'm gone
