Months after his passing I was broken, beat, and bruised I don't know what to feel As I sat in silence in a dark room Demons haunt me I hear their voices Life in general was pointless So I thought suicide was the option Sleepless nights Heavy thinking I hear my demons over and over again No point in living anymore Death has found me And it wants me to take my life as I broke down I see shadows of my past With a hint of blood I've seen my own shadows They walk in dark pastures As they head to the Valley of Shadow of Death My eyes are set to close as I breathed heavily Until one day There was a light of hope gazing through my eyes I see a hand reaching out to me With a voice saying "My son, come back to me" I broke down in tears As I held His hand with my blood all over He spoke to me and said "You are loved by My love" I repented for what I did And after hearing His voice and holding His hand I found the courage to keep on living And endure the journey no matter what the circumstances I have finally broken my silence With open wounds, dry blood, and a used knife My eyes were staring at my limbs I broke down in tears with agony I knew I am loved by a God who loves me for who I am I just didn't see it After months of agony I have found a reason why I deserve to live

Broken Silence
Months after his passing I was broken, beat, and bruised I don't know what to feel As I sat in silence in a dark room Demons haunt me I hear their voices Life in general was pointless So I thought suicide was the option Sleepless nights Heavy thinking I hear my demons over and over again No point in living anymore Death has found me And it wants me to take my life as I broke down I see shadows of my past With a hint of blood I've seen my own shadows They walk in dark pastures As they head to the Valley of Shadow of Death My eyes are set to close as I breathed heavily Until one day There was a light of hope gazing through my eyes I see a hand reaching out to me With a voice saying "My son, come back to me" I broke down in tears As I held His hand with my blood all over He spoke to me and said "You are loved by My love" I repented for what I did And after hearing His voice and holding His hand I found the courage to keep on living And endure the journey no matter what the circumstances I have finally broken my silence With open wounds, dry blood, and a used knife My eyes were staring at my limbs I broke down in tears with agony I knew I am loved by a God who loves me for who I am I just didn't see it After months of agony I have found a reason why I deserve to live
After I found out Chester Bennington committed suicide, I was devastated and heartbroken. It did hurt me cause I am a Linkin Park fan, and I know it did hurt any Linkin Park fans out there. At the end of the day, there is hope. Our hope is in our God Almighty up in heaven. I'm not here to change religion, but my intention here is to share my experience and be a living testimony through my poems. John 3:16.
