“Love or Death”


I am in love with a girl that’s older than me.

Love is what I need from her.  She can take my love.
Only if I had a chance that I can think of.
Very lonely, my soul is.  I truely need her.
Everyday, my love for her gets alot stronger.

Likely If I’m not with her, then I’ll want to die.
I will kill myself, and that sure is not a lie.
She doesn’t know that I’m very suicidal.
And one of these days, I won’t be alive at all.

Surely, I’ll never get her to go out with me.
Honestly, I know that a chance will never be.
And if she won’t give me a chance, then I’ll be dead.
Realize my true feelings from the words I’ve said.
Please help me or I’ll put a bullet through my head.

All that it would take is for her to turn me down.
Life would be too rough to live, if I stayed around.
When she turns me down, I will end my life for sure.
And I know that I won’t live if I can’t have her.
You might think that I am as crazy as can be.
Suicide will happen if she is not with me.

All that I am asking for is just one chance.
Please give me a chance.....
Please.
