The Ultimate Cowardice

Cowards run,

Cowards hide,

Cowards take the easy route,

What do you do when it’s the only route?

What do you do when it’s the only choice?

Don’t tell me I can choose,

When I can’t,

They tell me I’m brave,

I’m not,

I’ve run enough,

I’ve hidden enough,

I want to commit the ultimate cowardice,

Cowards stop trying

Cowards give up

Cowards take the easiest option

I want to commit the ultimate cowardice

The ultimate cowardice is

Unthinkable

But so desirable

So impossible

But so easy

So hated

But so craved

I want to commit the ultimate cowardice

To end the pain

Cowards give up

I’ve given up on life

I’ve given in to death

I want to commit the ultimate cowardice
