I Am No Coward

by

Peter Andrew Gunnis

 

 

Life for me has always been difficult

Never knowing love without booze

Mother with problems, alcohol and pills

Father with hatred for talented child

 

We all grow up with mixed feelings in life

To love or not, be safe or not, to live or die

For some the lines get blurry

For me they forgot to draw draw them

 

Writing a talent everyone possesses

Just some are luckier than most

No expectations are ever held

No results, the result of doubt

 

Sitting alone I wonder about my life

Where did I go wrong, or this a plan?

Suicide a word that always looks pretty good in lights

True courage is living
