I can’t face the morrow,
Drowning in this sorrow.
Aching from head to toe,
Does anybody know?

Don’t think I can go on living,
To do so would be deceiving.
I’ve always hated to lie,
It’s more honorable to die.

I don’t wish to survive,
Contentment can’t derive.
This hurt seems endless,
Life is already hopeless.

You’ve the key to my happiness,
Confined me to this barrenness,
With four walls for company,
Fellowship, can’t find any.

Can you halt my suffering?
I’ve thrown away my wedding ring.
If I could follow it to the seabed,
Then I surely would be dead.
