Room dimly lit by dying candle light.
Another shot of wild turkey I drink quickly.
The whiskey burns as it moves down my throat.
But the taste, smooth and crisp, that is all I care for.
I look at my watch and I release a sigh.
Again I have stayed up well past midnight.
I promised to never do this again.
A promise I am now going to keep.
Thunder booms outside but I feel no fright.
The rain is falling down heavily.
Before I walk out I remember to put on my coat.
Wind is howeling, the lightning flashing, thunder booming, rain pouring, weather is another thing I won\'t have to deal with anymore.
The rain hides the tears I cry.
No more pain after tonight.
Walking closer and closer to the bridge overlooking the creek.
My mind is clear as I look down at a wonderful sight.
The water is moving rather swiftly.
The rocks I hold will make sure I don\'t float.
My arms are open wide like a bird ready to soar.
But, I am not going to fly.
I take one leap and I vanish out of sight.
Ready to finally get some sleep.
The water is all around me but I have no fright.
The stones do their job and help me sink deeply.
I can feel the cold water moving down my throat.
I choke and gag but I will not breathe anymore.
The ones I loved I know will cry.
But my pain ends tonight.
My corpse will forever stay in the creek.
