Cowards are Made of Betrayal.

Cowards are Made of Betrayal.

A Poem by Rachael
"

Betraying us will be your last mistake.

"

You're screaming, "That's it!"
You're finally done with this s**t.
Life shows no mercy to the weak.
You're a liar, an oddball, a freak.

Run away from everything.
You're no good to us now.
Hide, you little coward,
Or take your final bow.

If you're searching for security,
It won't be found here.
The foundation of your sanity
Seems to have disappeared.

Happiness is such a distant emotion,
So go on and wilt in your sorrows.
Such a beautiful blossom,
You'll be dead before tomorrow.

Run away from everything.
You're no good to us now.
Hide, you little coward,
Or take your final bow.

There you lie, the end is near.
Trembling as the blood seeps out.
You're vulnerable to everything
Now that you've been conquered by doubt.

Now here we all are,
Gathered at your grave.
Submissive to misery and sadness,
You were nothing more than a slave.

Run away from everything.
You're no good to us now.
Hide, you little coward,
Or take your final bow.

My friend is in a small band, and they're just starting out, and they're having a little song writing contest, so to help support them I wrote this song. I don't really know where it came from, but a few people have said they liked it so far. Oh and I made the picture myself. :D I has skillzzz?

I like it! Its very very good and would make a great addition to my "Let it go" poetry competition... Very nicely done excelent flow and I would love to here the tune to it as well... Very nicely done!
the only fault I could find was in a the way the rhyme changed after the first stanza.... From couplets to every other line.... Kind of confused me at first... but its really well done!

Run away from everything.

Or take your final bow. = LOVE IT!

This would be a great song. Cowards are pessimists who are to afraid to try. You betrayed this well here.

After every extraordinary experience I've had, I'm finding now that I'm just an average high school student. My eyes have seen hurtful, saddening, and cheerful things for nearly 17 years now. I'm much.. more..
