Its over...

I'm sitting by the window
staring at the horizon,
wondering to myself
if this life has a reason

Meandering down dark streets,
no one by my side
I look up at the starry sky,
searching for that light

Would it really make a difference, i muse
if I wasnt there...
maybe they'll shed a tear or two,
and send up a prayer

But everything will be
just the way it was
and one of them missing
with not much loss

I caress it with my fingers
Feels cold, hard and beautiful
I pick it up and load it,
and put it to my skull

Close my eyes, a tear rolls down
Pull the trigger...

...and its over.

Hey thanks for visiting my blog. And nice poem.

And what are the chances that "its" in the last line might refer to the bullets in the gun?

Hey !! u there. U alive. Thank god. I just thought u shooted urselves .From the beginning the poem was very nice but in the end it became scary.

"But everything will be
just the way it was
and one of them missing
with not much loss"

Thats not exactly true. There r people who care for u. and one day when u will not be there they will miss u.

what would be interesting is if this poem had had a sequel! anyhow, the best part nobody would give a shit either way.

If over and out it ever is,
What was, will cease to be,
What will be, would not be needed,
So much scarier is eternity.
