Kid you’ve got a death wish,
Swear you’re gonna be six feet under soon.
Chasing after something that’s not yours,
They’ll be the end of you.
Doesn’t matter how bad you want it,
How much hell you’re willing to crawl through,
How much you’re willing to lose; how much strength you have.
They’ll chew you up and spit you out like the others,
Then they’ll leave you to die.
Kid you’ve got a death wish…
How’s a broken heart supposed to beat?

Just a poem I wrote while thinking on the themes of heartbreak and the need for acceptance.
