Life A Living Hell

By C. Gary

 

I look into the mirror and see death in my blue eyes,
I just don’t care any more, I yearn  to die.
.

I’m terrified to go on living; life is such an agony,
I die a million deaths knowing I mar my family.

 

Every day is lurid, I’m all alone and hurt.
I’m 3 months pregnant by a bum who treats me like dirt.

I’m only 20 years old but feel like 81,
I fantasize about taking my own life by the mercy of a gun.
I’m afraid of going to hell, I feel like a coward,
But that dread is growing weaker by the minuet and the hour.

I inhale crystal meth deeper every time,
I hope I overdose, I’m sick of living a life of slime.
