When no-one is listening

By silentninja

I found those buried emotions today
Those unwanted feelings I kept a bay
My past lies I wanted them all taken away
Its not who I am today

I have dug a million holes
Each hole is filled with a river of tears
I aim to dig deeper
In hope I'll drown

I am now fearless
Fearless In the sense I could not care less
My emotions are far from my very best
It was till now my emotions were surpressed

I will be seeing someone today
Someone who I cannot cancel
I dream of the grim reaper
Yet he's too busy for my fantasy

I've been awake all night
In less than half an hour I will cry
On my wrist I will hold the knife
I just want to end it all tonight

It will never happen
I'm a coward
Death is my fantasy
A dream out of my reach

I will ignore every knock at my door
Let the post pile the floor
Bring concern home once more
As my body obstructs them all

I'd rather you hate me for everything I am
Then you can forget me
Truth is I've been dead for a long time
There is just one final peace to the puzzle

The clock continues to tick
Here I remain to sit
Have I taken my life yet?
Will this be my last breathe?
