Tragedy In A Letter

I know this must come as a shock,
But you can�t say it�s a surprise;
You saw my heart, sinking like a rock,
You saw through my happy lies.

I wanted but one thing in life,
The thing which I can never have;
I will make no attempt to gain it in strife,
And so the trouble of further disappointment I will save.

I saw her on the street, arm in arm,
A handsome man and his stunning prize,
And this sight could do me no more harm
Than the grave from which my soul flies.

The sight of her is already a knife in my heart,
I will just give it the final twist,
So that from this cold world I may part.
I doubt I shall be very missed.

If I cause you pain,
I�m sure it won�t last long,
And now I see my effort was in vain,
Oh, I was so wrong.

I have destroyed myself,
I have crushed those who love me,
So please don�t blame yourself,
I died for my own stupidity.
