Accept Loss Forever

Fingertips don’t fear
The scent of gunpowder
With a neck that would
Know the burn of rope
And wrists not shy to the blade
The clouds will never part
With no comfort set in heart
Regret will spill the
Blood across the ground
Mix cyanide with whiskey
Hope release will come quickly
We accept loss forever
When morning comes
You swear the pain won’t stay
Then give a hesitant embrace
But if not, we’ll part our ways
Mournfully lay in wait
All skies overcast grey
Until the last date
The clouds will never part
With no comfort set in heart
Regret will spill the
Blood across the ground
Mix cyanide with whiskey
Hope release will come quickly
We accept loss forever
To whom it may concern
I guess I should explain myself
If I am hanging from the ceiling fan
I didn’t seek out help
Play a requiem
And lay me out in my best shirt
Atop my coffin and a gift to the dirt
Third time’s the charm
I’ll give it one more shot
I’ll try, and try, and try
And try until it’s done
