Father, Is This Best? Poem by Chase Casterline

Born into life
With full intention to die
Knowing I've been living
Nothing but a well thought lie

I've lost the will
To carry on
Since the day
That you've been gone

I don't know where you are
But I know I want you here
Stop the the drugs that you've been doing
Put down your last cold beer

We used to have many memories
Dad, Do you remember?
But it's hurting, This heartache kills
It's killed since last December
