PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

They told me ol'boy was pissed

but I didn't think he'd go out

like this

all I hear is people scream'n

I swear this feels like I'm dream'n

I don't understand

I can't feel my hands

I feel numb from my head to my feet

I can't hear anything else over the

sound of my heart beat

this street life I would've stopped

if I'd known what it was like to be shot

I can't see past the tears in my eyes

Damn! It really feels like I'm about to die



Blackout



What happened? Everything is dark

and I've lost my fight

Whats that in the distance?

It looks like a bright light

it looks like that tunnel people talk

about when your dead

Damn! I hope I am dreaming and this is

all in my head



Blackout



Wait! I'm back, back to reality

I see my moms on the side of my bed

on bended knee

I hear the doctors tell her I'm lucky

to be alive

the bad part is the rest of my life

I'll be paralyzed

it wasn't worth living my life in the streets

I knew all along this life wasn't for me

I wanted to live in the fast lane playing

the thug game

Now I'll live the rest of my life in numbing pain
