was so happy
my whole life ahead of me
I had so much to do
so much to see
I barely got out of my shell
and explored
and suddenly
I got the news
that i was about to die
I stopped listening
when words like cancer and death
started coming out of the doctors mouth
i couldn't believe
i wouldn't believe
but I had to
i could see inside my soul
and search the happy days
the sad days
but all i found was death
my soul was about to be released
from the cage
I would've had to leave
my family
my friends
my world
and leave everyone in pain
to mourn
but then forget me
to make room for more sorrow
