Bad poem i was bored

you held the pistol
half heartidly
you strummed your guitar
like it was the last thing standing
you mind confused you muttered your will
they spun down in through your empty shell
ill always be with you is what i swore
so ill grab a gun and continue on
hold my hand an we'll leave soon
the trigger locked loaded ready to go
you looked into my eyes and said
im high as hell why are you with me
he shot that bullet through his mouth
i guess he decided to test my promise
so i grabbed that gun fully loaded
decended a chase of will
and found him up in heaven sober, miserable

I actually like this one a lot.
