Acceptance

by daniel-michael-sullivan

If I asked you for direction, Would you tell me where to go? If I made my own decision, Would you leave my on my own? If I escaped from this prison, The one that's in my mind, Would my feet bring me far enough, To reach you in time? I've lost the ability to distinguish, All the wrong from all the right. I constantly wonder if every night, Will be our last goodbye. I harbor thoughts of you inside, I can never make them leave. The more I fail, the more I try, But you've built a home inside me. I'm desperate, I'm begging, Please give me my life back. I'm lying, I'm deceiving, You're what's keeping me intact. I need you from our past, And I need you for our future, I need you to kill these demons, That vow to torture me forever. My efforts have been in vain, To make you leave indefinitely, So I'll now accept my fate, And wait to fulfill my destiny.
