POEM: BULLET WITH MY NAME

Hiding in the shadows
In the corner he stands
A flash of metal hits the light
The gleam of the gun in hand 

I know it rests in the chamber
A bullet with my name
I see myself holding it
Myself to blame 

I haven't felt pain like this
Pain that cuts straight to my soul
How did I let this happen?
Where did I lose control? 

Just want it to stop
The tears in my eyes
Some nights I lay there
Other nights I just cry

Tears streaming down my face
Gun pressed against my head
One pull of the trigger stops it
One shot and I'll be dead
