I am shocked by the serenity surrounding me Finding closure was no longer a fantasy The calm that stills the sentient ripples of consciosness The departure of lonesome thoughts and inebriation A hole in my chest that could not be put to rest Yet it all faded away in a moment, a short moment of release When the knot in my chest was at its least All those defenses finally undone and the tears I've wanted to shed finally ran With the noose on my neck loose around my chest I can finally lay to rest this morbid festival of pain I want to live but not for another's deign but for my own will and worth I will live once again

Living as a choice
I am shocked by the serenity surrounding me Finding closure was no longer a fantasy The calm that stills the sentient ripples of consciosness The departure of lonesome thoughts and inebriation A hole in my chest that could not be put to rest Yet it all faded away in a moment, a short moment of release When the knot in my chest was at its least All those defenses finally undone and the tears I've wanted to shed finally ran With the noose on my neck loose around my chest I can finally lay to rest this morbid festival of pain I want to live but not for another's deign but for my own will and worth I will live once again
