[Poem #2]

In $u$ we tru$t 
Will you really come back for u$? 
Or will you leave u$ here in the du$t 
With wi$hful thinking, feeling lu$t 
For an afterlife, after the$e night$? 
I’ve $uffered, called your name, I cried! 
Plea$e prove me wrong, leave ME to die! 
In my brain i$ where you’ll re$ide 
I’ve picked my poi$on, mine$ in my mind.. 
From what I’ve $een, we all go to Heaven! 
X didn’t believe, where wa$ he $ent then? 
Don’t you forget that “Hell” exi$t$ too? 
$ay that I’m wrong, that I AM* the fool! 
You know that it’$ hard accepting the truth 
I AM* ju$t tired of being lied to!

- Joshua Crisostomo
