Just need a friend,

With whom the last moments of my life,

I can spend,

Just need someone to be with,

To share my joys and pains,

To share happiness,

And do for my friend whatever I can,

Are you there friend?

Covered with my blood,

Dripping from my hands,

My veins!

The PAIN!

Please help me,

Please stay with me,

In the last moments of my life,

Don’t you want to see?

See my happy,

See me the way I should be,

Not dying or lying in an alley,

Please help me,

Please stay with me,

It’s hard to breathe now,

Hey Friend,

Won’t you stay by my side?

Won’t you be with me for a little while?

I need you,

I plead you,

Please tell me a story or a joke,

Before I begin to choke,

You know, it’s hard to breathe now,

Don’t you have anything to tell Me,

Anything at all,

A gossip, a story, a joke,

Something funny, Something good,

Anything at all,

Why are you silent?

Why don’t you talk?

Please don’t be angry with me,

Please talk to me,

Please make my last moments happy,

Am feeling sleepy,

Please don’t let my eyes close,

Hey Listen!

Please Listen,

Hey!

You know this wasn’t what I chose,

Of sleeping pills I took an overdose,

Then cut my veins to block every hope of life,

Remember there was a good enough reason behind,

With Life I had a constant strife,

My Dear friend,

You were always there for me,

Every time I failed,

You helped me to stand up and climb,

You helped me see the world,

From a different angle,

Friend!

It’s about time,

I am sorry if I had ever hurt you,

If I had, then trust me,

I have no clue,

Will you forgive me?

Will You?

Blood,

Veins,

Skin,

Scars,

All so clear now,

Friends were everything,

Family, Cousins, Relatives,

All Bullshit and Lies,

That’s what I realized at the end of my life,

Am more lonely than the Mariner,

And the albatross,

Looks like Life in Death had won me after all,

In a game of Dice,

Hey Friend,

You still there,

Please apply some ice,

On my cuts and scars,

With death am having a war,

Just at the end I have come to realize,

Whom to love,

Whom to despise,

I just wish I had more friends,

I just wish I had realized…

Bye…
