A tiny whisper sings,
leave it, I’m not feeling it.
the weight of lethargy begins to sting,
yet the only thought crossed is escaping
further into the hole, dug to now seem
to resemble a home; and the outside world
now a place where this comfort seems to go to die.
back to reality? not if I make my own.
another needle stabbed into my elbow’s fold,
another high chased knowing I’ll never feel
the way I did before.
your face erasing from my mind
as a sinister grin takes over my face.
all I think about is getting high, seemingly justifying
my withdrawing from this race.
I’m a victim, you see, not someone to blame.
however, the moment I thought I could leave it all behind,
crashing down it all came
and showed me it’s not easy to crack
the code to your own sanity;
leaving it all behind, getting the demon off your back.
it’s simple: just give in.
leave your morals at the door
and let the darkside breathe in.
leave the worries of living life free.
you’re shackled by choice,
and this hell is now your destiny.
