I would wish this away
Wish away the night, the day
Wish it, wash it all, goodbyes
Wash away these screams, these cries
I would compromise this life
Bargain the day with the night
Fall asleep and have yet to wake
With nothing left to hold, to make
I would let go, sacrifice
Leave alone this day, this night
Looking back, I have gone blind
I could leave this all behind
I would scream the silent plays
Watching nights turn into days
Letting everything pass me by
Letting go of all those lies
I would realize all the might
If every day turned to night
Pay for all my endless shame
Just to quit this mindless game
I would write, if I could write
Every day and every night
I would cry a thousand tears
To take back every pointless year
If I could wish this away
Wish away the night, the day
I would wish for my demise
Wash away these screams, these cries

welcome to allpoetry
The pain just pours from these (well written) lines. You have an excellent flow to your thoughts here... and writing it out does help. That's the beauty of poetry.
I hope you will continue to write and find your peace through words.
