Fault: Remember, We'Re All Human.

First i say I'm sorry for what I've done I've had nowhere to go, to hide, nowhere to run. This isn't the first and certainly not my last Hard times call for hard choices, to take or to ask... Rejection, a pill no water can keep down My life for hire; to the providers I am bound I can't do this, I'm sick of being alone Every time i called; no pick up, just the ringing from your phone The horde it calls me time and time again, and still you wonder why i ask so little of someone, you, a "friend" I can't say no, not to you, not to anything you do It is your choice, your calls, I've got mine to make too. All I ask is this, just one small thing, pretty please? How can you say you're something you're not; a friend, just an arrogant tease. God hear me now, you're vote really counts, One in the chamber with the barrel in my mouth. All I ever wanted was for you to hear me out All I ever did was cry, scream, and shout. Why if you're real should i feel this much hate Alas, it's time for our trigger happy date Goodbye cruel world full of ignorant bliss Goodbye my fears, nothingness must be tenfold better than this. With a deep breath, i close my eyes, and i hope.... You were right there before me; with a click, dear God, your swing vote.

The poem is more of a lesson to which the reader can grab onto. The ending is open to the imagination, although i was hoping the reader would get the idea of a happy ending.
