New Years Eve Shooting

Sad Poem

I take shot after shot to forget

So many people love me

It's 11:55

The new year is coming

The clock is ticking

Time seems to be widdling away

Should I do it?

Take a shot

Take a shot

The mirror says it all,

Chicken s**t, Worthless, Useless, COWARD.

I feel only sorry for the one who will be cleaning up my brains.

The mirror screams failure

I roll through my house

Now owning a chair on wheels

I can't even lift a finger.

Failure. Failure.

ohh i love this this..
yes its sad but told a lot and so wise
so much love i see and time slipping away
but take no heed and i shoot time and again
feel worthless useless ,coward
i am so sorry for you.the one who is coming to clean my brains
a failure i run through life only to end on a chair
i could not even move..how did i get there
never played well
how i liked your stories
lovely write..

This is so deranged and twisted and...EPIC.
I love the line,
"I take shot after shot to forget
So many people love me"

Holly, I like this. I wish I had written it. Like an onion that brings tears to the eyes, this too has many layers, each one separated by the thinnest of filaments,
truths and figments of our own perceptions.

Much enjoyed.
