The Road Out Of Hell
I went to see the Priest one Fall Saturday
Time to rejoin the Church...Live the Christian way
Father shocked me when he said my Mother was going to die
I wanted to cry
Deep down I wanted to hit him
For telling me my future was grim
His advice to me was find a wife
Start your own life
Stop hanging on to your Mom
Stop fighting with you Brother Tom
I left not liking what he had to say
His hard words made me stray
Well Father was right
Mom died one cold February night
I decided then it was God I would fight
Darkness falls...Absence of Light
I soon learned fighting with the Creator is a sin
So I stopped my fight and turned to Gin
The more I drank
The lower I sank
Depression and Drink put me on the Road to Hell
Sad to say you may even hear your own Death Bell
Somehow I stopped drinking and started writing
The more I wrote the less I felt like fighting
It took a long time
But I learned how to write lines that rhymed
And I thank God for lifting my Depression Spell
By allowing me to find my way to The Road Out of Hell
