I close my eyes
I have to focus
I hear my heart slow
I've lived for this moment
Breathing in deeply
I want it to stop
The lies, the pain,
The whole entire lot.
And the book is getting thinner
My story's going to end
The black ink is getting darker
But I am not afraid
I love these cold
Kisses
This flowing river
Soothes me to sleep
Up to this moment
I've lived through the worst
Anger, pain and sadness
But that's doesn't matter anymore
I'm going to free
This isn't the end
I see at the light of dawn
Night will turn to day
I can feel the last few pages
I've made it through
I'm nearly at my end
But now I am afraid
There's a void out there
I can hear it calling
Pulling me away
But I'm actually falling
Down
I don't want to go there
I've done my time
I only want peace
Is that such a crime?
I look at my book
The cover is bruised
The pages are torn
I never realised what I had to lose
My heart is racing
My breathing is quick
I'm so stupid
How could I be so thick?
Life is a test
We are given different paths to take
Some are hard, others are not
That does not matters
It's the choices we make
I open my eyes
And beg for forgiveness
I look all around
And see nothing but kindness
I'm held in an embrace
I feel all warm
I can't see their face
But I'm not forlorn
I'm handed a book
It looks all new
The blank pages are for me
So I guess that I can continue
I'm back in my body
I can feel the pain
I'm alive but I want
To see them again
I remember my book
The new start that I'll have
To recreate myself
To live again
I can breath easy once more
I'm alive and ready to move on
Thank you to those taught me
How to live again.
