Reconsider Suicide

He was worth more dead than alive 
Told himself they’d survive
He didn’t think it was sin 
To violate one of the Top Ten 
Thou shalt not kill included himself  
It was in the dusty Bible there on the shelf  
With an empty heart and lost soul 
Life had become out of control
Last ditch effort to ease the pain 
He put a bullet in his brain 
Now his heart doesn’t beat 
But his spirit feels the heat
 
Envision continuous raging fires
Feel the smoke burn your eyes 
Smoldering sulphur in your nose
Flaming furnace without a hose 
Before you pull the trigger or ring the bell
Imagine an eternity spent in HELL

When the light looks dim at the end on the tunnel
GOD is the one to get you out of trouble!!!
