Daddy,

Zim brought a gun to school

Trying to kill Dib.

I saw him pull the trigger

And I jumped in the way.

I realize that was stupid.

I clearly see that now.

As my life is leaving me

And I'm bleeding on the ground.

Brother's crying softly

And grimly Zim is too.

And I'm wondering

What will happen now?

Will I go to heaven?

And watch you all above?

Or will I join

Mother down there?

A place where there's no love?

Either way, I must admit,

I am really scared.

I wanted to grow up

And maybe settle down.

But now my dreams are blown away

As my life spills on the ground.

So now I want to make amends

Before it is too late.

First up is brother,

Who I didn't really hate.

Next up is to Zim,

I loved you, I really did.

Finally is Daddy.

I have so much to say.

But if I say I'm sorry,

It just might be okay.

Daddy,

Zim brought a gun to school,

Trying to kill Dib.

The thought when I jumped was this,

He has more reason to live.
