A moment of madness
A man struggles to come to terms with life after tragedy strikes

he had his struggles his life has been hard
dealt a bad hand always short of a card
always the wrong side of a coin that was spun
money on horses that could never have won
never had luck with affairs of the heart
he kept looking but didn't know where to start
money making deals he lost more than he´d win
an unlucky gambler when he went all in
he tried his best but he´s all full of doubt
wants to throw in his hand wants to cash out
he finds dutch courage he´s taken to drink
his mind won't change there´s no time to think
What could he do with nowhere to run
fed up with life he took out his gun
finger on trigger and gun to his head
a moment of madness then he was dead
on his limp body a note that was found
saying where he wanted putting to ground
in the churchyard where his sweetheart lay
has he´d never recovered since she went away.
