Poetry

When you are broken and and don't know what to do
When the men you trust are backstabbing you
When the God you once believed in deceives you
When you are alone thought there is a crowd about you
When you expect good news but it doesn't come to you
When you are broken and don't know what to do

When you are dismayed and your spirit is down
When upon your head is placed a thorn crown
When you are scared of the funniest circus clown
When your wife also refuses to wear your favourite gown
When on introspection you find that your self-esteem is out of town
When you are dismayed and your spirit is down

When you have nothing to hold on to and await death
When you are haggard and gasping for breath
When you have lost everything including your loin sheath
When the only sounds you hear are those of your chattering teeth
When you know that you have been living inside a hearth
When you have nothing to hold on to and await death

You know you are doomed and there is nothing else in store
You have even lost your soul you are worse than a whore
You have only one place to go which is the earth's core
You shuttle without reason unlike waves on the shore
You know to you life doesn't offer much more
You know you are doomed and there is nothing else in store

Dying in peace is all you can respectfully do
Contemplating your retribution is way beyond you
There is so much a man take and the limit has been reached by you
Damn it, there is no one else who can understand this but you
So go while there is still something left in you
Dying in peace is all you can respectfully do
