Earth's Mirth
If I were absent from this EARTH,
I wouldn't experience such mirth
If I were nonexistent like an aborted infant,
I wouldn't be a treat...I would be insignificant
My family would've forgotten me in an instant
If I gave in to SUICIDE,
I wouldn't come along with life's ride...
I'd be denied
If I were to go back in time...
REWIND...
until the night of my birth,
I would have committed a malicious crime
In a flick of a dime,
Earth's mirth would feel extremely sublime
If I left my family and friends behind
FOR THE SAKE OF MY RELIEF...
I'd create strife and endless...
ENDLESS grief
If I could repair my past mistakes,
Oh, I would take advantage of that opportunity
AND HIT THE BRAKES
In a bewildering moment of
Being cornered by
toxic,
sinister,
red
snakes
Earth's mirth suddenly....
Abandons you...
Paranoia and anxiety transforming
Fates into abominable fates
