sentenced to life

for those who know...

 

you will see me

you will see me here or there

there is no hope even in suicide

the best of me has gone

the courage to give all

 

the body will live on as it wishes

but the soul will have no part

for i have slain it

 

gray eyes and cold tomorrow

hands washed in eternal silence

 

a trail of blood

to the opening of hell

where i threw my dead soul

and my debt was repaid

 

but hey, i still have my sense of humor

yet another bygone thread reanimated! this is my lucky day.

 

pet, Sentenced To Life (a double play on words, btw) was a poetically licensed, exaggerated reflection of my darkest moment. haven't been there in many moons, and thanks for your concern. the overall theme was the comforting belief that even in my loneliest, fist-clenching hours of despair i still can crack wise and make people smile. i have always thought that if i ever lose my sense of humor i'll probably croak, so i try to keep it exercised...

 

Tau_ree_sauw, that is juust the reacution i was houping for. thank U for your comment(s).
