  the enamel turned black today.
down to the very core.
that sold my Shrine.
to a local Drunk for a Penny.
that eventually got tossed.
onto the old dirt road.
that ended up nowhere important.

  my Karma set in.
spreading the infection.
of a love lost and forgotten.
that caused me to kill myself tonight.
because the emptiness.
screamed it's pain out loud.

  and I heard God laugh at me.
because I was born.
to live and let die.
into a Blackness so thick.
that it wasted my life away.
down into something that.
turned ugly to everyone I knew.

  I just wished that.
the strings could fall off.
and let the noose disappear.
from my aching heart.
that has seen its.
fair share of pain.
only to cover me twofold.
