Roger Hawes Poet Sonnet

Roundabout To Hell

Roundabout to Hell

Woke with thunder within my head
Feeling like I wish I was dead
Visited the black hole again last night
The place I go to drown out life

Round & Round & Round I go
Where I sleep nobody knows

I live on a roundabout from hell
Dizzy all day never get a spell
Sun beating down blistering my eyes
Need another fix but nobody hears my cries

Round & Round & Round I go
Where I eat nobody cares

I live a life of crime
The only way I exist in time
I have no hope or dreams to live
Tears and heartache are all have to give

Round & Round & Round I go
Where I drink nobody knows

Don’t see my kids no more
All I see is the wrong side of the law
Don’t see my wife no more
Just wish I’d never been born

Round & Round & Round I go
Where & When I stop for good
The Lord be the only one who knows.
