Andreana Lim - A Suicide Note

I wanted you to grow old
I wanted to touch your weathered hands,
kiss your wrinkly face
I wanted you to become the doctor you said you'd be
I wanted you to see our beautiful house,
the children and the dogs
I wanted you to kiss me on my wedding day
I wanted you to propose
I wanted you to have more blissful years in love
You weren't suppose to go so suddenly, so young
When you died, your life wasn't the only one you took
I wanted to grow old too
To become the mother I knew I'd become
To be proposed to, to meet you at the end of the aisle
To be blissfully in love for a few more years
I wanted you to grow old...
