The end
Everyone loved your cheerful smile
Your perfect set of teeth made your smile even more contagious
Even though behind that bright white smile
Was darkness
I guess you were just so good an actor
You smiled even though the night before
You cried yourself to bed
Because he did it again
The monster with which you share family ties
If only everyone got to write their fate
You wouldn’t have picked an animal for an uncle
But life got you and it continually laughed at you
Life laughed at you when your parents died
And you had to live with an animal
It continued laughing every night
As you screamed till your vocal chords tore
It kept laughing as you fought for air
Under his disgusting sweaty body
The laughter didn’t even stop when he hit you
Over and over
As your body gradually gave up
And pain—emotional and physical—meant nothing anymore
Until you decided to let your soul go too
Until you fed your body with its last poison
One greater than the one that came out of your uncle
Greater than the one life choked you with daily
You ended it all
And you let life win
Now
You’re down...right back where you started
In the dust
But its way too soon...you gave up too soon
You let life win
And you left a beast to roam the streets freely
