Another Way

Darling it's true this is paradise,
Please don't with evil intentions
           Use that device.

Heaven on Earth is here child,
Stop waving that horror with that wild
         Look in your eye.

Do you believe that all the pain
Will just dissapear, washed
       Away by the rain?

Find help please, don't blame
Yourself, later on life
               is not always the same.

Don't swallow it all,
One leap of bad faith,
        Together we can prevent a fall.

Take my hand, drop that gun,
Untie the noose, drop the poison,
         There is no safe way to run.

He and his girlfriend had a huge fight and afterwards he went home, took his dads shotgun, drove to the top of the local ski area and blew the back of his head off according to police reports. Hikers found his body the next morning. My heart goes out to his family and friends that we both have.
