Dead At 25

Dead At 25

By: Tyler Ross

Sharpened sparks shooting me still

The constant complaints I keep to myself

Lessening me now day to day

Finished at 25, I couldn’t be saved


Aching shocks come and go

Digging themselves in, they thunder below

Under my ribs and down to my arm

Too fucking young to sound the alarm


Dead at 25, the news will say

Many will weep over an early grave

Questions of why the good die young

Answers won’t come for this fallen son


Panic pains pinch and cut off my air

Random jolts to my body keep me aware

This could be it as the lights dim south

Ready to rest from this sting

My teeth gritting down inside my mouth

Over and out
