Morning

Out once again in the white snow
I’m starving, slowed, staggering through the streets
looking for my next meal as the day before
My choices led me to here

I peer through the gated house on my walk
A couple makes breakfast
bacon, eggs, toast, making my mouth salivate
My choices led me to here

I dreamed of their life for years
My stomach pulls me to their fence every morning
security, safety, love. A life I can no longer have
My  choices led me to here

Night

Red and blue, have followed me for years
My bad decisions have kept them close behind me
like a dark shadow looming
My  choices led me to here

Red and blue, they have followed me once more tonight
I needed the cash to eat tontie
the cashier did not need to live
My  choices led me to here

Red and blue, they seem to have left
I can stop by the fences to look once more
friday is steak night, and I can almost taste it
My  choices led me to here

Red and blue, they found me by the fences
A quick turn results in a bullet through my skull
last thoughts looking at my soulmates perfect meal
Whose fences I have peered through for years

Death takes me away from all the mistakes I have made
My  choices led me to here
