It's 2:29am as I sit in the bath
I'm reflecting on my sad existence
Everyone in the house is asleep
As I bathe in more tears than tap water
Dreaming of how easy it would be to slip under the steamy water
And say good bye to all the sorrow
And feel peace, bliss, jubilant
Complete perfection in a way life it's self could never deliver
Count to three
One
Two
Three
One final breath in this life,
Savor it
Fluttering eyelashes for the last time
Take in the surroundings because this is all you have left
One slow movement
Slip in
And say goodnight darling.
