To whom it may concern,
I don’t understand why you’ve abandoned me
Thrown me overboard so far out at sea
All I can feel is the pressure in my chest
The tearing of my lungs as I hold my last breath
I just want to know why you’ve left me here
My limbs are now aching from all I endure
The swelling of tides push me further from shore
I give up, my arms fail, I can give it no more
My lungs expell the precious air,
As panic sets and turns to fear,
Arms like dead waits as they motion a flail,
Salt water fills me, it’s no avail,
Sinking down, all panic spent,
I had no time to repent,
No last change to seal a deal,
No final supper or last meal,
But with no hope of getting in the gate,
Still my body could not hate,
In death I’m floating peacfully,
I see that now I’m truly free,
It’s life that’s pushing on through Hell,
Like the final current, that builds and swells,
I don’t believe in God, not a fearing man,
Though now I understand the final plan,
