"Tact is, of course, only for those who lack the wit to possess sarcasm"


Jump in front of a bullet
Or take a hit from a car
In lieu of you
Or give my life in any way
I readily would

I would…
But not for why you would think
Long ago
My motive would have been love

That has changed now
I have Nothing to live for
And Anything to die for

I’m not trying to die
But I have no will to live

And that is why my offer stands…

kind of a sad poem really, but reflects my feelings at one point in time or another
