"Life ain't pretty"
taunts the voice in his head
his only friend with tears
"you're better off dead"

so much pain in his heart
his life is beat
to get away from it all
to die is such a treat

"leave it all behind
to rot on this earth
i knew i'd choose my time
eversince my birth
and as my life
has turned to shit
i'll take a knife
and slice my wrist"

"your hearts been burned"
the voice echoes agony
"the pain never leaves"
his life was a tragedy

his friends left to cry
to pick up the peices
as they remember his words
his memory never ceases

"leave it all behind
to rot on this earth
i knew i'd choose my time
eversince my birth
and as my life
has turned to shit
i'll take a knife
and slice my wrist"

life hasn't bloomed
it never is perfect
a lost soul could not see
he wasn't a defect

friends are pained
blind with fright
worried for a repeat
in sleepless nights

"leave it all behind
to rot on this earth
i knew i'd choose my time
eversince my birth
and as my life
has turned to shit
i'll take a knife
and slice my wrist"

and with his tears
the voice was a travesty
he was so loved
his death is a tragedy

his friends ask why
they couldn't tell
how much his life
was a hell

"leave it all behind
to rot on this earth
i knew i'd choose my time
eversince my birth
and as my life
has turned to shit
i'll take a knife
and slice my wrist"
[link] that one was written for me, this one was written for a dear friend of mine. i have a story with it too, but i can't currently find a copy of the story, tho i know places i should be able to find it, i'm lazy.

anyway, quick odd personal note- i read both of these for a speech thing in highschool, i breezed through "unfinished victory" wihtout a problem, but stumbled over this one. it's because altho i wrote this it's not mine!

not so random note- a friend of mine turned this into a song per my request, i don't ahve anywhere you can hear it tho, if i figger out how to do something like that maybe i'll link y'all

It's really long and it's macabre, but I read it. It's deep.
