A Lack Of Courage
By Curagé Lessa

I'm too much
	of a coward
	to kill myself.
And have not
	the courage
	to use a gun.
Pills
	I have been told
	Are known to backfire
And cutting myself
	with razors
	would not be fun.
But still I pray to God
To end my misery,
To  please take back
	the life
	He gave to me.
But still I toil on
Alive and healthy
And wish that I could die
And be with thee.
