Last Breath 8.6.99




Last Breath

No welcoming committee present
Not even a day of rest
Coming home from a paradise
Is the hardest thing to do

It’s all full of lies anyway
Trying to make people feel good
When their intent is to make you feel like shit

It’s not worth the effort to force a smile
Not worth the effort it takes to be happy

So sadness remains

When asked, “what’s wrong?”
The usual “nothing” is replied
They wouldn’t hear anything else anyway

More yelling
More screaming
Less love
Less happiness

This is the way it shall remain
Until I breathe no more
