Lost in desolation,
probing in desperation
For my lost sanity
and its exact location
Illustrating my anguish,
with each stride I take
I put my life at stake,
Genuine regret penetrates my mind
As I walk the path of uncertain fate,
Irresolute about what I will find
Speaking from experience
I can surely say
This man is delirious
And will die today
He betrayed his family and friends
Deceived even himself
Because of his worldly goods,
tonight his life ends
his evil and snide disposition
is something man can’t mend
FAMILY TROUBLES
I have eradicated my own offspring
This is the price I pay
For opening my mouth and talking
To someone I couldn’t trust
I suppose I really deserve to decay
And fade away into dust
He’s determined to have me killed
So I’m considering suicide
I don’t want any blood spilled
But I won’t run away and hide
I eventually reach his ‘humble abode’
It’s more of a sham than his life
This is where he let his rage unload
And gashed his son with a knife
I skulk in warily, wanting the element of surprise
I step in some type of liquid
I hear from below me, a groan and a sigh
And spot the man, about to die
I act rapidly, but I get there just too late
He’d dead, and now I too must meet my fate
The man then sliced his own throat and died in silence
Ashamed of his own malice and his violence
He was the uncle of the little boy who was killed by his Dad
And in his search for revenge, he himself went mad.
