Rhymes of the Heart

My Final Stand

Watch for the bright light
A gift to you from me
Didn't you tell me once?
Life has no guarantee

Taken all of your abuse
Hung my head in shame
Till one day I figured out
I'm not the one to blame

Like someone lying comatose
The world just slipped me by
I didn't have the right to laugh
Or your permission to cry

One day something in me snapped
The gun was in my hand
I know you saw the bright light
As I took my final stand
