With Hopes Of Forever

(In the end instead of the word coin.. or whatever.. I used Rose because I thought it was pretty... not because I don't know what it is. ^_^ )

You look into my eyes, dark and dead as disco,
I'm only a memory, like the count of Monte Cristo,
No longer a person, but a thing of the past,
However we all know: life isn't meant to last.

You all paint your faces; the show must go on,
Death is your master, you'll dance to his song,
Although you may mourn for me, you wont shed a tear,
For you want to live longer, in this world based on fear.

I wish you wouldn't do this, living life for Death,
But as you know- I'm dead already with no hope for one more breath,
There's no way to tell you, you'll all be going to Hell,
Because like every other, I also tripped and fell.

Death took my life, but something worse got my soul,
I'm all alone in anguish, and I'll nevermore be whole,
These words may be forgotten, but I'll hand in my last Rose,
In hopes of forever, and in earning some repose.
