Rope Swinging

Rope swinging up so high. Now's the time I will die. I step onto this chair. Finally ending this nightmare. I grab the noose. Make sure it's not too loose. Tears are falling. All my hopes are quickly dying. It's around my neck. I make one final check. Note in place. Scribbled in a hurried pace. Then there's a knock at the door. The screams say, "open this door!" I jumped. The chair bumped. Quickly loosing air. Then to my despair... In you came. But I already ended the game. To your knees you fell. As I slowly drifted off to hell.
