I WISH HE WOULD DIE

I wish he would die is an poem about the hatred some parents feel about the no good people their children have chosen to be with.

There is a darkness inside of me

Something that will not set me free.

I am consumed with thoughts of murder and pain

I want him gone and return everything back the same.

I knew he was trouble when I first saw him and heard him speak

But for some God forsaken reason he makes my child weak.

 

I wish he would die

I wish he would die

Everyone knows he's living a lie.

He cast a cloud over my head

God forgive me, I wish he was dead.

 

From my head to my toes,

My anger grows

Where did he come from and why is staying

To keep from killing him, I continue praying.

God please help me to remove this strong man

I know without a doubt his evil plans.

 

I wish he would die

I wish he would die

Everyone knows he's living a lie.

If I was not afraid for my soul

His death would be my goal.

God forgive me for feeling this way

This is why I continue to pray.

 

Since he has been in our life

There has been nothing but sadness and strife.

If I could escort him with an shovel into the woods

Everything would be all good.

I know it's terrible for me to think this way

This is why I continue to pray.

 

I dreamt one night he was gone

Back to the recesses of hell where he belongs.

When I rose the following day

He was still with us and again I prayed.

 

I wish he would die

I wish he would die

Is it me, Lord, am I living the lie?
