Rope

The rope is one inch thick
And maybe ten feet long
I've tied the knot up tightly
And yanked on it, it's strong!
The bucket is now empty
I've placed it upside down
I've got the noose around my neck
My family, out of town
I've drank a little lately
A little more than alot
I wrote the note to say adios
I prayed and kissed the knot
I stood up on the bucket
My legs shook, my hands sweat
I couldn't stop from crying
I am alone, no safety net
"Forgive me and forget me
The choice I made was mine,
I will not leave too far away
And will visit you sometime."
