It's Over

Dark skies filled up thick with rain Chilly days that awaken the pain Salty droplets flowing down my face My heart beating at an abnormal pace Screams start to fill up my head I'm to do something everyone will dread Should I take the gun,the blade or the rope Society has crushed everything including my hope Filling the tub up to the brim Why did life have to cost a limb First its the thighs then my ankles Then my wrists and I massage my temples I stagger to the bath and lay in the water All I can hear in my head is everyone's laughter Slowly I loose consciousness and I begin to float Above the water my body rises as though I'm a boat Sudden darkness takes in my mind Something not strange to find I then exhale my last earthly breath Well done society now I've met my death

It s a really beautiful written poem, society has alot of impact on our character, mostly people just don t do half of their things just because of this sentence that " what the people will think" and end up giving away all of their dreams, forget society, don t even care, that s he way of life, reach for your dreams and only have one feat in heart, of God coz we are in world to make Him pleased, not society. Good luck and welcome to poetrysoup
