Deadly

Oh so lethal.

Don't be deceived

This isn't make believe

OPEN UP YOUR EYES

And see the truth outside

 

Stop trying to conceive

GIVE IN AND RECEIVE

It's time to accept the facts

What we have is deadly

 

[CHORUS]

Like a poison taking over

A disease growing deep

No longer able to feel heat

Your blood running free

Every breath becoming slow

Your heart no more yours

THIS IS DEADLY 

 

The essence of life is gone

ACCEPT THE SICKNESS THAT HAS COME

THE COURSE IS ALMOST DONE

NO MORE BLOOD PUMPS

 

No more light

Don't even fight it

No more tonight

It's past our time

Far to deadly now

 

[CHORUS]

Like a poison taking over

A disease growing deep

No longer able to feel heat

Your blood running free

Every breath becoming slow

Your heart no more yours

THIS IS DEADLY

[Coyote Poetry]

No weakness in this poem. Strong and honest words allowing the anger to stand-out. I like the repetition of the words "This is deadly". I like the ending to the outstanding poem.
