Twenty Twenty Envisioned

20-20 vision is not strong enough to foresee 

The inevitable fate that will soon end my realty 

But one thing I do know for certain i will soon close the curtain

20 years of tormented voice preventing me to make any choice

20 years will soon come to end i kllnow it hurts to say good bye friend

I thank you for the memory of torturing words, If i give myself a choice i pick water over shells

The water feels better then the shells to walk on the feeling it gotten worse for far too long

20 months shorted to just a few it will end in 0 to 2 put the numbers backwards and and a pair

So you shall know know when I'll no longer be there

Roughly 13 more to go and very soon i rest my soul

Judge me not, it makes me not weak, the pain just builds for fear to speak

Think of me from 0 to 2 my very final happy memory will be just of you

Is this real! I worry when I read such poetry because it sounds so final, suicidal.
