Slow death
Slow death
I'm scared to live
I can't continue
Every breath I intake,
Is burdened with unspoken aches.
There's darkness ahead.
They'll never realize
How those monsters fed on my body,
shushed my protests,
preyed on my mind,
Corroding me from inside.
They'll never know
The hatred and fears
That's been depositing inside me for years.
Their expectations tormented me
I lived for their unfulfilled dreams.
Sacrificing my passion
);">These shoes didn't fit me
And they didn't alter them
They blamed me instead.
I never complained,
Not even tonight
When I am bidding this world
Goodbye.
The pain stabbing at my heart
And the tears that choke me to death,
Throbs more
than the tightly knotted rope
Entangled at my neck.
The poison spreading through my veins
Is like a balm for the years of my grief.
Slowly, the chaos in me is calming
Beyond what words can explain.
