The bullets in the chamber - the guns to my head
The question is am I already dead
My life\'s already over , so I say
I can\'t bear the thought of another day
The demons inside, they eat at my core
I don\'t know if I can take this any more
I try not to think of others, the grief they\'ll feel
I\'m just not thinking right, it doesn\'t seem real
My brain tells me to end it, it\'s time to go
But my heart and soul cry out a thunderous \"NO\"
I put my finger on the trigger strengthen my resolve
But my heart asks \"What will this solve?\"
Conflicting emotions within my head
What\'s to be accomplished by me being dead
The thing about hope is that it is always there
You just have to search for it, for a reason to care
The darkness cries out in all of its fury
Times running out, you must hurry
But the lights not gone it\'s still in sight
Showing that life is the choice that is truly right
The fight was fierce, but the battles won
The bullets in the chamber - but I put down the gun
The question is am I already dead
My life\'s already over , so I say
I can\'t bear the thought of another day
The demons inside, they eat at my core
I don\'t know if I can take this any more
I try not to think of others, the grief they\'ll feel
I\'m just not thinking right, it doesn\'t seem real
My brain tells me to end it, it\'s time to go
But my heart and soul cry out a thunderous \"NO\"
I put my finger on the trigger strengthen my resolve
But my heart asks \"What will this solve?\"
Conflicting emotions within my head

The darkness cries out in all of its fury

The Writing Process
What is the Writing Process?
Many of us learned that the writing process is made up of five parts: Pre-writing, Writing, Revision, Editing, and Publishing. Indeed, this process has been so ingrained, and the vocabulary and terms have become such a part of our education, that some students (and adults) feel as if writing is a formulaic, rigid thingnot unlike learning mathematicsthat they simply never excelled in. Fortunately, this simply isn't true. While the five basic steps of the writing process are effective, they can only be effective if the people using the process understand the purpose of e

How to Start and Stay Writing
I recently solicited my watchers to ask me writing questions that I would then attempt to answer in a writing guide such as this. This article is my first response, and there will be many more to come.
I've been asked to give advice on ways a writer can begin to put words on a page. The bottom line is as simple as this: sit your butt down and write.
Duh, right? It's the only way I know to actually write.
Sure, sitting your butt in a chair is easy, but getting your fingers to move and stay moving is a challenge. Here are three things that have helped me.

Your goal can be as simple as "describe the person in this picture" o

A Guide to Writing Style
Writing Style - The Bottom Line
Words are like sunbeams. The more they are condensed, the deeper they burn. - Robert Southey

I'm glad that the bullet remained in the chamber. I've known utter despair in several of my good friends, and luckily they're all still here. Like the diction and how the mind fights the soul. Great poem!
