Escape is an Unaffordable luxury (Free verse) by Freethinker1602
Marred flesh makes the pain more bareable
I stare back at pain in contempt for myself
Always knowing that I am the true villain
I am an endless path to corruption
What good is there in a quick end
It can't ever be that easy
Where is the healing if I make it hurt
It all runs together no place for sanity
The anger seeths in the back of my mind
Telling me of a greater danger to come
The desire vindictive, some day my downfall
Where to go when the pain is too great
Can't escape there's no one to understand
My life couldn't mean anything more
Than just a meaningless void of hate
There's the answer, oh how selfish would it be
It sits there looking at me
I can't control this urge to end it
My mind realing with torment
The sickening hunger sweeps over me
Congruous thought no longer an option
The chill of death whispering in my ear
Oh unhappy fate collect me end it now
I look upon me in disgust
I this harmful paracite
I do no good while sitting this close to the edge
Maybe it's just time to take that last step
I know I have the guts to get that far
If I can smile one more time that would be enough
If I can laugh again that would be enough
If I can watch the rising sun that would be enough
Yet none of it seems possible
So when do I say good bye
Is a posthumous state too late
I can't say that I feel fine
Stop lying and know that this is the time for redemption
To end it all and know that it is the right thing
