Deadly Thoughts
(Push and Pull, Part 2) When troubled times come crowd out the room To bury souls in dark thoughts of gloom Depression drawing deep Seeks out a path to keep The quiet solace of ocean's tomb How easy to walk into the sea To begin the end of what was me To take that gasping breath Embracing soggy death And let those problems of bad times - flee But flee to what? Hell's hot eager fires? From cooling waters to burning pyres? And what is left behind? To haunt my children's minds These thoughts were those that changed my desires |
