Before And After

by Chad   Jun 21, 2005


The pain of self hate.
A pain that I did create.
Looking at what I have become.
Inside my heart is shallow and numb.
Let me rest my heart and soul.
Can I escape from this hellhole?
Let me live lives doom.
Never able to understand it\'s gloom.
Now I put the gun to my head.
The floor starts to turn a blood red.
As death nears.
I can see the tears.
I can hear that one word...

He was such a coward.
But we did not need him.
He was stupid and grim.
He was a burden anyway.
We did not want him to stay.
But he did not care.
The way he talked to us was so unfair.
He was just a selfish freak.
We all knew he was weak.
He did not care about anything or anyone.
But then again, he was my only true son...

    The title throws me off, and the second stanza seems a little forced. It is a courious way to talk of death...

    strong, true emotion. amazing. i can relate in my own little way.

    "Let me live lives doom."

    I'm wondering if you meant: "Let me live life's doom." Otherwise...perfect.
