I am born

Amidst glares and scorn

An unwanted gift

The family rift

They stare in disbelief

"All he'll cause is greif"

The only words I heard him say

Before my father left

And I am alone

I begin the child's act

Along my long and winding track

I build up the colorful blocks

As my mother knits a pair of socks

But now she's gone

As the black cars come 

And i am alone

This time around,

No longer a child

My years turn wild

I'm on the streets

Because no one dares to greet

The ones with no name

They believe we aren't the same

No words, no home,

And I am alone

I am at my "middle-age" 

Bald spots are all the rage

Husbands and wives,

Discussing their jobs, their lives,

I have no one to talk with 

Life is my only gift

To me, a family is a myth,

So I am alone

It's my final chance

No more life grants

I sit in a leather-bound chair with wheels

Eating my very last meals

An orange fog surrounds me

And I embark

On thhe journey to the arms of an old friend

I am alone for the last time

I greet the familiar face, death

The final word is my last breath

I am completely, blissfully free

On a platter, my present sits before me

As I lift myself to the heavons above

Death fits like a glove
