A poem I wrote
I'm reminded of a time as a child,
And it almost makes me cry.
A time when it felt like eternity,
for 5 minutes to go by.
Now I am much older,
I've lived a life some would regret.
I have no remorse for what I've done,
Only 5 more minutes do I get.

The things I have done,
Horrific thoughts brought to life.
Obsessive, evil compulsions,
Fed satisfaction with a knife.
So now I sit here waiting,
To walk one final time.
To have my life taken away,
To be punished for my crime.

They strap me down, buckle me in,
And do up all the laces.
I'm turned around to face my judgement,
I see 5 angry faces.
I close my eyes with a smile,
And breath a happy sigh,
You'll never know the reason,
5 angels had to die.
