Reconsider Suicide

He was worth more dead than alive Told himself they’d survive He didn’t think it was sin To violate one of the Top Ten Thou shalt not kill included himself It was in the dusty Bible there on the shelf With an empty heart and lost soul Life had become out of control Last ditch effort to ease the pain He put a bullet in his brain Now his heart doesn’t beat But his spirit feels the heat Envision continuous raging fires Feel the smoke burn your eyes Smoldering sulphur in your nose Flaming furnace without a hose Before you pull the trigger or ring the bell Imagine an eternity spent in HELL When the light looks dim at the end on the tunnel GOD is the one to get you out of trouble!!!
