I never detail the contemplations to which my mind steers me Forcing me to see that demon in the mirror that still drives this fear in me It’s the fear of hitting my breaking point but not sure of how far I’ll go Just to ease the pain I suffer from & will it cause my blood to flow I keep having this dream where I’m stuck inside a bathroom, sitting in a bathtub With a bottle of liquor, a razor blade, & a loaded gun sitting next to me on the floor Candles lit, music blasting, but here I am shedding tears that everyone else ignores I’m questioning why I never talk about these issues when i already know the reason Revealing the dark truth about my suffering while trying stop many from leaving So should I drink my sorrows away or take a bullet to the brain Or cut myself to drown in a tub of blood before someone calls me mentally insane Which poison do I choose? Which evil is worse than the other? If this inner demon comes outta me, would the pain still be hard to discover? I remain trapped within the mind as I stare at the ceiling as Monster plays in my head Knowing that it’s only a matter of time before I either snap out of it or I end up dead Clock’s ticking, blood’s spilling, liquor’s burning my liver, & my soul starts to shiver I feel the monster inside of me coming out but I can’t bare to look into the mirror Do I face the music finally or do I keep running away as it keeps breaking me down? Pretending to be okay knowing on the inside my death is due to be announced I’m in the final seconds & I still haven’t made my decision Blade in my left hand with the gun cocked in my right Threw the blade on the floor before I put the gun to my head Saying my last goodbye to those I love but then I get that phone call It’s my best friend crying hysterically trying to catch my fall There’s a pound on the door but I’m refusing to open it Cocking the gun back once more right before the door gets broken BANG the gun goes off & I black out, waking up on the floor unconscious Then I open my eyes seeing 3 people standing over me as I become nauseous They pull me up as I’m looking over at the tub to realize that it was never real It wasn’t me in the tub that I was trying to **** No gun, no blade, & no bottle present just my phone face down with the music still playing I just fell asleep on the floor next to that anxiety bottle that I was taking But it made me realize how I got lost in that world seeking any way to escape Even it it meant taking out myself just to get me away from that hell crafted place
