Why must this take so long

Why does death elude me does it no longer hunt me like a lion to it's pray the sweet sleep is so far away, outside of grasp. The overwhelming feeling f reponsability impedes my plan and my mind feverishly attempts to find a way to disolve the promise and responsabilities owed. To decide the way to face death is another decision should it be peacful and fade into a quiet slumber should it be quick and one painful I find myself lacking the courage to take that final step, to pull that triger or take that extra pill I ate my life and the constant strugle I hurt everyone I know and can't keep the one's I love I lose them to death and to my inabiltiy to look outside my of me There is nothing to ook foreward to nothing that will change my life for the better So I continue with my prayers to be taken from this turmoil and grief to stop hurting others in my life with one last pain and loss, the loss of me
