I have the strength-
Strength and desire
Strength to carry on
Strength to keep the fire burning
Within my isolation
The walls were closing in
This mortal sin
Almost cost me everything
Breathe In- Breathe Out
That's what they told me
Words racing
Jumbling up
Creating more chaos
I have-
The will and desire
To stand on my feet
To feel the sun and breathe
I know what needs to be done
No noose around my neck
I have the strength to brave this world
I have the will to not knock on death's door again.

I have the strength-
Strength and desire
Strength to carry on
Strength to keep the fire burning
Within my isolation
The walls were closing in
This mortal sin
Almost cost me everything
Breathe In- Breathe Out
That's what they told me
Words racing
Jumbling up
Creating more chaos
I have-
The will and desire
To stand on my feet
To feel the sun and breathe
I know what needs to be done
No noose around my neck
I have the strength to brave this world
I have the will to not knock on death's door again.
A year ago I was in a mental institution and this was wrote while in the institution..
