Your Answer


Fade to black
Stain the white light
With the red life
Spilling from your wrist
The metal echoes
Throughout the cold abyss
As the knife clatters to the
Concrete ground
Nowhere to turn
Nowhere to go
Nowhere to be
Never hold fast to this feeling
Let it slowly set your
Limbs on fire
Along with your very
Soul
My spirit is uplifted
Addiction to this unholy
Feeling comes fast
Your breath is stolen
Away
Don’t blame yourself
For everything that you can’t
Control, but it feels
So good when you do
To feel like your
Only option is to
End your pain
By creating some
New pain
Don’t close your eyes
In fear for they
Won’t ever open again
Suicide is for Chickenshits
They say
Yet only courage can
Make you go through with it
Then consider
This my last act
On this Earth,
This is my display
Of courage…
