My soul is written out before me
In meaningless lyrics and jumbled notes
Tangled together, looking like nothing more
Than a ball of spasming scribbles

I sing the song of my life
To an audience of corpses
My voice reaches the ears
Of the dead and the dying

The motion of my mouth
Synchronizes with the stench
Of the rotting skin

Great poem and life sucks at times and all iv got to say is enjoy the ride because it's short and sometimes life just gives you a lemon witch is when you make applejuice and sit back while the world tries to figure out how you did that. Now you've been given an hot dog Now go and make a hamburger!
