The cold metal object weighs
Heavily on both my mind and hand
It’d be all too easy to take
A life from this overpopulated planet.


Maybe yours or maybe mine
I haven’t decided which one is more valuable
Death is around us constantly
Someone new dies every day


Why not just shorten the life span
Of one unlucky bullet recipient
But if you ask me
They’re getting the easy way out


Just close your eyes
And count to three
Say goodbye to the people you love
It’ll all be over with a simple pull.

Haha .. I guess it's a good thing the only gun I own shoots water and not bullets.

{{{A~R}}}Well I can say from personal experience that writing is a splendid release.I was able to walk slowly away from a very dark place that was once the remainder of my existence.I hope that you cont.to write & I sincerely wish you best.Godspeed!Cy

Thank you ((((CyPoet))))

I think we've all been there, some of us more than others. Good write.

Thanks Calleigh.

hhhm...that was ......it is good to write make sure u dont keep ur mind in that spot though....now write a up one just to be even


.

perhaps a bit morbid, but if one can look without blinders, this piece does have something to say.

keep using your voice.

I love morbid poetry. All of mine is rather morbid. Or perhaps angsty....not sure which....

do iiit, dooo iiiit
first load your gun
then pick someone

its realy easy
please belive me
for ive killed many
with my metal heavy
and my mind light
i go out hunting
late at night

hide in the shadows
with your metal arrows
no need to fight
just pull your gun
and shoot on sight

do iiit, dooo iiit

nice write by the way

my comment was not meant to be disparaging at all. i think we all (those who attempt to convey our thoughts and life experiences) have our dark sides. i too enjoy this brand of writing, though i have lately expanded my own personal horizons, the subject matter here still has an appeal(for me) and was dealt with well.

I didn't take it that way. I was just saying I write angsty poetry. I can't write unless I'm miserable/sad or just agitated. Wasn't a criticism of your comment.

not at all. i was just trying to clarify my position...trust me, my skin is much thicker than that.
