Death

by Anthony burke   Jun 1, 2005


I have seen death,
He calls to my name,
this is the reason that i feel such great pain,
He hides in the darkness and kills all i hold near,
These is the reason you see me in tears,
He laughs at my pain with nothing to gain,
but the evil inside me grows all the same.

I have felt death,
send chills down my spine,
only to send me for one more bottle of wine,
I'll drink my self stupid to forget what was done,
and if that doesn't work then I'll pick up this gun,
How can you forget when your haunted by there voice,
It only leaves you with one simple choice.

I have touched death,
And still i remain,
To live in these life with the greatest of pains,
I should be dead, buried and forgotten,
With those of my loved ones who now are all but rotten,
Why do i linger here for no purpose in life,
Maybe its time i picked up the knife.

I have longed for death,
and yet i am here,
Only to cry one more silent tear,
I have loved many in my short life,
and seen so many fall to the knife,
So now i sit here scared and alone,
Wondering if i should pick up the phone,
Should i leave here and run far away,
Or should i embraces death and just stay,

These is question to all of you,

Is death something that you all fear,
In the silent of the night do you cry a tear,
If pain is all you see in the dark,
Then what stops you from shotting the mark,
From ending it all and escaping the pain,
If nothing is your answer then you and me are exactly the same
