Born in A Coffin
I get a call from Heaven.
I get a call from Hell.
Why the hell am I here?
What is my purpose?
Here on this earth.
To rid it of these wretched fools.
The puppets of this ugly world.
I feel as if I'm hanging from a noose.
It's gripping my neck tighter and tighter.
Every moment I breathe.
I feel that I'm going to die.
I wanna believe that there is still hope.
Left for me.
Where did I go wrong?
I battle with my demons.
In the last moments.
They tell me I shall be born in coffin.
Dragged through the streets of Hell.
And thrown into the fire.
I wake up and realize.
I've been such a fool.
The people I love.
They all have shunned me.
I need to repay my debt to society.
Let me die!
Let me die!
Let me dieeeee!
After all, I was conceived on a tombstone.
Born in a coffin.
I get a call from Hell.
Why the hell am I here?
What is my purpose?
Here on this earth.
To rid it of these wretched fools.
The puppets of this ugly world.
I feel as if I'm hanging from a noose.
It's gripping my neck tighter and tighter.
Every moment I breathe.
I feel that I'm going to die.
I wanna believe that there is still hope.
Left for me.
Where did I go wrong?
I battle with my demons.
In the last moments.
They tell me I shall be born in coffin.
Dragged through the streets of Hell.
And thrown into the fire.
I wake up and realize.
I've been such a fool.
The people I love.
They all have shunned me.
I need to repay my debt to society.
Let me die!
Let me die!
Let me dieeeee!
After all, I was conceived on a tombstone.
Born in a coffin.

Another poem I wrote just off the top of my head.
Tell me what you think, thanks.

Well written. You are addressing the age-old dualistic concept between heaven and hell / good and evil here, among other things. A lot of raw emotion that are well presented. Well done.
