The Trap

Poetic Licence

The Trap.

 

Shit you have fallen into the trap.

Straight into a pile of more crap.

Searching for the road to riches.

Meeting with whores and bitches.

 

Socialised with robbers and thugs.

Joined the club of losers and mugs.

High as a kite every bloody night.

Living in the dark avoid the light,

 

Took the wrong side of road in life.

It is time for you to pay the price.

Devil has come calling for his dues.

The end is here, you see the truth.

 

You Could not repay what you owe.

Times run out on your crazy show.

Gun pointing straight at your head.

Free at last because you are dead.

    So sad so sorry. We all probably have someone we know that got swallowed up whole by The Trap! Very meaningful if somewhat painful as well. Superb read πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

    Thank you for your feedback, it was quite rare back then, but today i should think it is very common.

    Choices we make take us to where we are today and this may not be where we wanted to be. Bad choices bad results. Great write well written with good rhyme

      Sounds like a dramatic life style that comes to a horrible end. He who lives by the sword dies by the sword. Well written
