Soft Heart


Where am I going?

I guess I’ll never know

I can hope all I want but the answers never show

It's a shot in the dark but I’ve never held a gun before

It felt kinda good so maybe I should shoot some more

I’m scared but I like it

I’ll enjoy this for a bit

So let me make this clearer

I'm sorry this is morbid

One day I’ll shoot a mirror

It’ll shatter just like I did

This is my life

I wouldn’t trade it for anything

But maybe I should end it to stop all the panicking
