go on, because you must. because you want to, <br />you can, you will, and I'm not <br />on your shoulders. <br />go ahead. munch on a dead cigarette <br />and look at your life. <br />go ahead alone, 'cause you can't pull me <br />away from myself. <br />lose your posture and pretty words <br />in a dark lake of spirits and smoke. you can do it. <br />I won't be joining it. <br />go ahead, 'cause I'm rooted to my <br />fine state of mind. <br />spend your thrills and money as <br />your health dissolves by your hand. <br />I'll not go off this square of mine. not to <br />see me break my body. I won't throw down my arms. <br />you've never moved this man to walk in your storm. <br />you can't convince him. I won't say I am so wise, <br />but I'm not interested in suicide.<br /><br />Scott Stevenson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/go-ahead-alone/
