World of Lies

Disclaimer: The quoted stanzas are not my words, I found them online and they inspired me to write this poem. The credit for the lines go to jdwate on DeviantArt. "Slit your wrists and cut your thighs," "Wipe your tears and dry your eyes," Take a pill and practice a smile, Drag yourself that final mile. Forget your friends and drown your sorrows, You will be lucky to see tomorrow, In the end your all alone, Nowhere you go will ever be home. Pick up the gun and aim at your head, Remember that you're better off dead, Say your prayers, then end your life, Look who finally gave up the fight. Shed your tears of pain, In this world nothing is left to gain, Close your weary eyes, Try and escape this world of lies.
