cynic depression

life is short

the outcome is sad

you always thought

things arent really that bad

you tried oh so hard

yet it was all you had

get me far away

so i dont have anything to say



as if you noticed

we forgot to tell you

your family is gone

we're so sorry for your loses

yet we don't even know you



with the funeral at dawn

who would put the casket

out on the lawn

everyone staring out you

and you dont look back

you're their second death

as they keep track

without a heart

with no soul

we sell you to walmart

cuz your really old



we sorry for you loses

we like to cut our throats

never show up to see him alive

we come for his stuff

its a great life



blink your eyes

you could die

try to hold your cough

everyone looks at you

times are tough

but this is bad

the son is suposed to bury the dad

but a father stands

in the cold snow

shovel in hand

one more life to not know

he wips the grave clean

second one this year

its time to eat

and pretend to cheer



we want to help you

so we left you out

we want to kill you

so we left you out



your soul is watching us stare

you hated crowds yet we're all there

its a sad thing to die at 45

so always drive 65!

You know the saying 'only the good die young' i wonder if that's actually for the most of young deaths. Anyways, i really enjoyed reading this piece. This might sound horrible but i thought it was sort of humorous at the end. Well truly wonderful writing.
