my untimely demise

My untimely demise!

In case of my untimely demise
please don't grieve
for I am in a far better place
it was time for me to leave.

The pain got to much too bear
as my heart broke and shattered
into a million tiny pieces
the day you said goodbye

We took our love for granted
never stopping to care why
you took up with another
killing the pain you tried to hide

Are you happy now
since you pushed me aside
or grieving in your shameful misery
If I were around – would I still care?

My love for you was timeless
It was constant and true
yet... you chose another
so what am I supposed to do

To live in sorrow
the rest of my days....or
find another to
drown out the painful way?

As I close my eyes
for the very last time
guess what's on my mind
nothing but you!

Very moving -- a permanent solution to a temporary problem, but I'll admit I've considered it before.
