just flesh and bone dear sir

take me where the sun never shines
let me see a black horizon
filled with smoke and wordless rhymes
for my future is not mine

i stand and stare at the bruises on my knees
oh how i have prayed
i have begged and pleaded
but never succeeded

my hands have no feeling
as i held them towards the sky
for far too long
mercy for me long gone.....

but i grin and i smile
just for a while
as i know how the story goes
the story called
               the end......
