If I died today,
This would be my story

A young man longed for love
He found glimpses of it as he spent time with several women
Once a man of deep faith, he lost much of himself as he turned away
At a parallel time, he held onto one of the women who never could have saved him
He lost his belief in love, but he still tried
He never understood why he was shattered
But in spite of being depressed almost all his life, things were never quite this way
He reached out to different friends scattered about different media
He tried to bare his heart for anyone who wanted to see
He wanted to be known
Broken relationships he saw everywhere brought tears to his eyes
He was tormented by death and the end of everything, so even connection he felt from time to time carried little meaning when he stopped to think
And one may have hoped there would be a happy ending, a comeback story, but he passed today
What will they say about him?
They may say anything they wish, but this is the truth of the life he lived
