I waste money with debauchery <br />Believing laughter can defeat depression, <br />That drugs can suppress obsession. <br />I perform rituals of death <br />In vain attempts to cease my breath; <br />I keep escaping like Houdini. <br />My shallow grave keeps pushing me out <br />As cruelly as my mother’s womb. <br />I can find despair, <br />But I cannot find a tomb.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-shallow-grave/
