Please come back home

I can hear you screaming in the darkness that I fear,

I can see your helpless eyes filling with your tears,

I can never help you and I feel so deject,

Always smashing mirrors for my sins they will reflect,

I see you curled up as they tare apart your soul,

The crimson blood flowing with the sense of time in toll,

I will forever continue this and that you know is true,

It’s a hopeless little prayer that I sadly made for you,

Please understand I really tried so hard,

But even now all my efforts only left you scarred,

I know I was the voice deep inside your head,

I truly wanted to save you and remember what you said,

Please, I pray, forgive me for I know that I was wrong,

Making you so weak whenever you were strong,

I watch the coldness in your sad and lifeless eyes,

Filled with nothing but the dark and painful lies,

I watch as the razor falls towards the ground,

Dropping from your hand now waiting to be found,

I always see the cuts that are as deep as bone,

And I curse myself for ever leaving you alone,

I pray you now with saddened love, please come back home.
