PEOPLE ARE DYING EVERYDAY

WHY DOES LIFE HAS TO BE THIS WAY

CRIME TAKES PLACE OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR

AND THE SMELL OF DEATH IS HARD TO IGNORE

LYING ON HIS BACK WITH A HAND FULL OF CRACK

RED WARM BLOOD STILL LEAKING FROM HIS CHEST

THAT WHERE HIS MOTHER HEAD REST

EVERYONE BEGAN TO CRY AS A TEAR ROLLED FROM

HIS EYE

THEY CAN SEE HIS PAIN

WHEN SELLING DRUGS FOR MONEY TO FEED HIS MOM

BROUGHT HIM TO SHAME

SHE PULLED HER HEAD FROM HIS CHEST

SO HE CAN SEER HER FACE ONE LAST TIME

AND REST

NEVER TO AWAKE

AND HIS SOUL BY THE LORD TO TAKE

(PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK)

    It really does seem you sat down and wrote this from your heart. The anguish of being put in such a horrible and difficult position I wouldn't wish upon anyone... great imagery! Keep writing from your heart and everything will write itself =)
