I feeling kinda lonely
my skin is turning blue
my heart has give up beating
And i smell like an old shoe

Today I died
my heart hasn't the heart to try
i've lost the will to survive
Cause todays the day i died

No-more lonely nights in bed
plenty of time now to rest my head
on this soft plush velvet red
deep down in the ground

Today I died
my heart hasn't the heart to try
i've lost the will to survive
Cause todays the day i died

This is the end of marriage
And if it was still a working part
I'd cheer with all my heart
because death did us part

Today I died
my heart hasn't the heart to try
i've lost the will to survive
Cause todays the day i died

No more wife to nag
No more Job based Stress
No more kids to murder
No more life in a mess

today I died
i m glad i no longer have to survive
I feel happy and a passing dread
Im happy now im dead

The very deep did rot: O Christ!
That ever this should be!
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

(tears fall down my cheeks) Such a poem of sadness and despair! (big hugggssss) Oh Walter, I am so sorry your marriage didn't work out, but it's not your fault, for you have a loving heart of gold and I just know with your love you will find the woman of your dreams! I know how you feel, for just two weeks ago I've felt like a ghost too, with a boy inside of me that died. But the world continues to revolve, just as your heart keeps beating. I pray with all my heart this feeling passes and you again find love to remain with you eternally! (big hugggssss) So very sad but well-written! You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
