Selfish Suicide

They say that "suicide" is selfish act
Leaving " everyone" with no closure, and
No reasons why

All those years you " fuckers" did I cross your mind?
No!
Did I ever say " you were selfish?"
No!
Did you ever call; see if I'm fine, or needed anything?
An " hey you ok?" want to do something, your too busy " ok"
No!
Perhaps a birthday card, or a Christmas gift
An invite to a party, your just to go out?
No!
Did you wipe my tears when I cried, or hug me when I needed comforting?
No!

So not knowing me, or knowing my
My troubles, my pain, my hurt
The war I fought for my country
Yet when you heard of my suicide you say " I was so selfish"
Fuck you didnt know me!
Selfish was I?
What did you do for me?
Don't judge me!

So Everytime you hear that someone
has taken their life you really can't
Say it was " selfish"
What did you know about them?
What did you do?

It's not selfish to take your life
It's fucked up when you have to wonder why?
If you were not too busy
You would have known them
You would have known why!
