Self Righteous Suicide

A date with death your final breath
One last gasp you try to grasp

Your time has come 
This isn’t for fun

The possibility there is no heaven
A risky gamble, maybe no lucky sevens

You should have no adoring pride
 In your self-righteous suicide

You could be lost forever eternal
An unknown soul, an empty journal
