I'm captivated by your beauty,
taken back by your charm.
If your lungs beg to take a break
I will give you the breath to stay
until you're okay.
Will you do the same for me?
I can't help but wonder
what is it that makes me yours?
I feel so lonely,
so apathetic-
everything's surreal.
My vision's blurred,
my speech slurred-
I'm too numb to feel you right now.
Leave me to my peace,
security drawn across my arm;
peace is held closely to throbbing heartache.
Sharp, cold metal
against warm,
smooth skin.
Cleanly swipe it through,
fall into the blinding night.
