I don’t want to die

I want to live, but not like this

I had to die to follow my bliss

Endless spreadsheets, missing data

Chaos

Legal exceptions, moral deceptions

Trade-offs

Staring at a screen

Talking to a machine

Never ending variants of disease

Tell me the end game, please

None of this is free

It’s costing you and me

Clinging to green isn’t my dream

Dying for my life is what I mean

I lay to rest 

Parts I’ve known best

Liberation

Salvation

Resignation

And the weight of the world off my chest
