It seems circumstance placed me here

I feel at peace...


Failure

That was all that I faced

Victory was something I could never taste


They offered their condolences

Their "heart of gold" killed me


Is it my right to be happy?

To not be shunned and taken advantage of?

My tendencies are my disease


Apathy is a deadly drug

Through doing nothing, my life-force was sucked


Wanting to die is a wish not a promise

But if the Duke of Death is calling

Who am I to deny him


I barred myself from love

Banned myself from kindness


As I gently removed my crown of thornes

I volunteered for happiness

If my tendencies are my disease, than death may be the way for me...
