Bullet

by Synh   Mar 17, 2006


He seems so unhappy
Something is on his mind
His life so miserable
Since the beginning of time

The world passes by hastily
Leaving him with father time
He's trying to catch up
Lest he fails and dies

He looks at me with such distance
Death is in his eyes
The life he once knew
Has met its demise

Sadness has become the home
His shelter from misery
His soul hidden from the world
Kept secret from all who seek to see

I have found his happiness
I can help his sorrow come to an end
It all begins with this gun
And ends with a bullet through my head

    Wow that's so sad, the middle stanza really tore at my heart. It made me think of a friend I lost and that's what I saw in him, a growing distance, like he was already gone. Brilliant write again x

    It wasn't entirely good. Some problems with the flow. It had strong imagery yet the words didn't have that hook. Imagery was the most effective as was the emotions.
