simple thoughts when your at your end <br />You finally figure out what has it's worth <br />Nothing at all but whats upside down <br />I've needed to hang since the date of my birth <br /> <br />All I do Is drag down smiles <br />Tears hit the dirt as we walk the miles <br />Long cold roads right through the snow <br />slowly and steadily we head for the gallows <br /> <br />For crimes of a life I know I've failed <br />Upside down to a cross I should be nailed <br />This fate I've chosen for myself is true <br />I've failed myself as well as you <br /> <br />Dust in the wind as dark clouds draw near <br />Ten feet up my heart is in the shallows <br />Holding my breath I dropp to my death <br />Swaying in the wind here at the gallows<br /><br />Matt Burgett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-gallows-3/
