I look up at the night sky wondering where you are
Are you at a party or maybe a bar?
The frustration and anger causing so much dismay
Because I know it’s in another’s arms you lay
I loved you so much; I was always true
I made the skies always look blue
And how you repay me is by causing this grief
You’ve stolen my heart like a conceited thief
You hurt me and beat me if I spoke of another man
The hypocrite you are you left with another and ran
You lied to me and said that I was the only one
But I know it’s not true so I picked up the gun
I wanted the pain and the suffering to end
So this is my final farewell that I shall send
For my husband is abusive and lies and cheats
And I will no longer be in pain; no longer get beat
So goodbye Mother, who took care of me so well
You warned me of men like this, but I just couldn’t tell
You brought me up to be a lady and be faithful and true
But I didn’t think it could happen to me, I should have listened to you
Daddy my dearest, my protector and hope
If you had only known you would’ve have hung him with a rope
That’s why I couldn’t tell you; cause I thought I still loved him
I didn’t want you to hurt him even if he made life look so grim
My one and only sister; who guided me through my years
Who was always with me, through laughter and tears
How could you have known that the man that I loved
Could hurt me so much, he seemed like he was sent from above
He did seem like an angel that God sent to save me
He helped me become what I always wanted to be
But then he became jealous and I couldn’t believe
How much he had changed; how well he could deceive
Goodbye everything, to my heart I hold dear
And if you should miss me, remember I am always near
Just look to your hearts and I will be there
Making sure that for all your troubles to come your prepared
This is my final thoughts and my last goodbye
But remember this ends my pain, so please don’t you cry
This ends my final farewell given to you in this ode
And to all those I love I will give you this bode:
I will watch over you closely and will help steer away wrong
Forever I will keep you safe and strong
I’ll help you to stay away from the danger I went through
And help you find the men that you know will be true
Unlike the man that I found that seemed so innocent and harmless
He just seemed like a sanctuary, or my lifesaving harness
But he hurt me terribly, emotionally and physically
And it’s gotten so bad that I had to end my life sadly |
