The lights fade to black. I've made the choice, there's no going back.
I put it to my head, and pull the trigger.
The sound echoes, but then all is quiet. I feel at peace, I don't have
to fight it. No more pain. No more sorrow. It's just too bad, I won't
see tomorrow.
My heart stops beating. My blood runs cold. My arm falls down, the gun
along with it.
I am found the next day. A bullet in my brain, and a gun on the floor.
My mother cries, as does my father. But these tears aren't real....why
even bother?
Weeks go on, the pain sets in. They realize I'm gone, and not coming
back. That's when I hear the sound of a gat. She took her own life, as
did he. In hopes of being here with me.
The clock strikes 2. I jump to life. I'm in a panic, scream for my
life. It was all a dream. I know that now. I realize I'm loved, and
the sorrow is gone. I triumph my fear, this game has been won.
I go to back to sleep, feeling relieved, as the light fades to black.

- Artist: TheLieutenantXx
- Description: I decided to write a poem about the years in which I suffered a deep depression. I know the writing is choppy, and there are a mix of rhymes, and err....not rhymes, but all in all, I think I did okay....
