#blessup

It's time for me to return home
The place they say we all came from
I wonder if it really exists
Or if it's just some magical myth
I wish I'd never opened up
Now it seems that life's too rough
I don't know who asked for me
But my life feels like a tragedy
God, can you grant me these few things
And I promise I'll go without much fuss
Shelter the world with only kindness
Shower the world with all my love
Give my mother the power to grow
I love her more than she'll ever know
I really tried, but I have to go
Soon my life may be no mo'
Give my father relief from his pride
I know he'll never understand why
Let him know it's okay to cry
But I need to become one with the sky
Give my nana the strength she'll need
Please heal her heart from any grief
Lastly, bless all my siblings
May they know joy long after me
Bless up.
