Goodbye My World

Original Composition by Shiela Zaldivar

Problems, myself’s too tired to bear;
Strength, I can no longer keep.
Weary with life and all its cares,
I now lay myself to sleep .

World condemn me if thou wishes
T’will not bother me a bit
For I shall not hear your curses,
Far below the ground six feet.

Say, I’m a coward and a quitter.
Say that I lost in the fight.
But add, to make things less bitter,
That I did search for the light.

Now time has come for me to go
I must, lest I retreat.
Goodbye my world – my friend, my foe,
My heart shall now cease to beat.
