Point Of No Return

I stand on the edge
Arms wide to embrace my defeat
Embracing the fact that
There's not much left to give.

I breath in a huge gulp
Of the suffocating air
Carrying the scent of
Stories of my failures.

The stories will be told
To many upcoming generations
I will be the topic they would avoid
At every possible celebration.

I will be the tear in the sofa leather
That people try so hard to hide
I will be the infected wound
No matter what that doesn't fill.

Just one step and I will be all those
That I despise so much
Because I know my one step will
End my pain and intensify theirs.

I might be okay for once
But they will die forever
It might not hurt me
But it will kill them a hundred deaths.

I won't be here when
It would be my chance to look after them
Then I won't be here
To return from the Point of no Return.

I stepped back
From the Point of no Return
To return to them
Who stood by me through fire.

I stepped back
And returned
To those who were happy
that I returned.

I stepped back
To let the world know
I still got fight left in me.

I stepped back
Because it's always better to die in a battlefield.

It was then!
In that moment
That I Returned
From the Point of no Return.

It was my first victory.

(A/N) This chapter is dedicated to all the fighters who returned too. And those who are at the verge of that point, I know how you feel and I understand something very hurting must have brought you there. But before giving in to the temptation just step back amd give it another try.
Give another shot at life.
It will be a new chapter. Live it like a new person. Create a world that you want.
Just step back because you can.
