So, I took third in a local poetry contest this week. Here's the work I submitted.

Last moments.
Close my eyes when I die,
I don’t want to look at the sky,
I don’t want a lie on my lips,
I just want to feel her last kiss.

I don’t want to look at the sky,
Because I never prayed to him before
I just want to feel her last kiss
Maybe then I’ll have peace.

Because I never prayed to him before
How was I supposed to know it would all end like this?
Maybe then I’ll have peace
Or maybe now I’ll understand what I never could

How was I supposed to know it would all end like this?
The signs were on the wall
Maybe then I’ll have peace
Damn I just want to forget it all

The signs were on the wall
I don’t want a lie on my lips
Damn I just want to forget it all
Close my eyes when I die.


I was pretty impressed with the turn out and hope you enjoy.
