All because he pulled the trigger.

All because he killed himself.



He would have been married,

But now he’s married to a casket 6 feet underground.



He would have had 4 children (Jason, Lindsay, Michael and Conner)

But never will they see the light of day



He would have been a Preacher, spreading the word of God

But sealed lips are forever shut



He would have saved a life

But now he lies lifeless



He would have died at the age of 86, warm in his bed

But he died at the age of 16, cold on the floor



He would have had grandchildren, and THEY would have had children

But they will never be born, never given a fair chance



He would have met Jesus

Instead, he’s sitting in hell



He would have given to the poor

But now there’s none poorer



He left his friends and family crying

While he cries silent tears underground



He was an only child

His death is unbearable for his mother



He said no to drugs while he was ALIVE

But all the formaldehyde used to embalm him…



He would have had a life of love and happiness

Not anymore.



He would have? Well, he WOULD have, hadn’t he pulled that God damned trigger.
