If One Day....

if one day

you should find me

lying on the floor

unconscious and not breathing

without a pulse or a heartbeat

- -
i'm sorry

- -

if one day

you should find me

dead

lying in a puddle of my own blood

- -
i'm sorry

- -

if one day

you should find me

hanging

literally, at the end of my rope

- -
i'm sorry

- -

if one day

the police should come to the door

to tell you they've found my body

on the train tracks

or on the highway

or floating in the lake

and i'm gone

- -
i'm sorry

- -

but-

if one day

you should find me

smiling and laughing

wearing short sleeves

or a bathing suit

and there aren't any scars

- -

please take a picture

- -

so that i can look at it and know

that dreams really can come true
