Verdict


Verdict


Despair

Slipping to the edge

Passing the point of no return

A haven for the crazies

With no lessons left to learn


Defense

Emotion slowly dissipates

Diluted by a stiff drink

Searching for life’s meaning

Too frightened to think


Survival

Standing at the crossroads

Looking back with regret

Disillusioned with the anger

Of painful memories you cannot forget


Revenge

A judas kiss

Sharp words spoken with ire

No motive no verdict

Just a bouquet of barbed wire


Final Verdict

Instant death on impact

Pain that smashes walls

Flying without a parachute

The verdict says it all.
