How would it be if I never came to be? All I know for sure is that no one would miss me. I would not have affected so many lives. I wouldn't cause people to shed the tears that they cry. If I weren't here, maybe my brother would. To live a life that I know he should. If I were gone, maybe my son would be here and live a long life throughout the years. No life would mean no CPS retaining DJ. I'm so sorry that things have gone this way. Not being here would make everyone see. Also, maybe my wife would still have her family. She would have happiness instead of living sad. She'd have joy in her life instead of me making her mad. My mother and sister could have a different life without the pain, anguish and strife. These are the things that run through my head. So don't be mad when I say, "I wish I were dead." If I go tomorrow, these things remain true. You won't miss me, but I'll miss all of you.
