It hurts
But it makes it better
If just for a while
It goes away
Leave me be for a bit
But it too hurts
Why do I do it
I have no reason
My life is fine
But something inside
Is not
I think my mind is going
It’s leaving
And taking no prisoners
I should welcome it
As a fact of life
But I don’t want life
The good days
Do not make up
For all the bad
All that is bad
Can not be turned into good
It’s too late
My mind has gone
And there
Is not turning back
Just the wait
For it all
To end
