Rain and Slush
I look outside my window
To the streets below
A cold rain is falling softly
Making slush from frozen snow
As the waters flow on by
In the cold outside my door
I sit alone in silence with a soul
That's empty to to the core
The only thing that's moving
Is the water from the rain
The coldest tears are from the years
Filled with useless pain
I wonder now while I converse
With the Devils in my head
I hear their accolades of praise
Telling me to go ahead
As melting snow turns to drops
The rivulets become rivers of rage
The flow will eventually stop
When the words run off the page
Still my eyes see no reason
That makes it all implied
You get angry and shout it out
As the memories refuse to die
And you curse the sordid mess
That just won't stay away
So you load the chamber of the gun
With the bullet you bought today
You spin the cylinder of the gun
And put the barrel
To the temple
Of your head
But your too chicken
To pull the trigger
Putting another possibility
In instead
