The rope caresses my hands
As I tie my fate
I fit it to my neck
It laces my skin like poison
I step onto the chair
And gently pull the rope
It tightens instantly
Kicking away my sanity
I feel my life leave me
Choked by my mistakes
I see your shadow at the door
My eyesight fading
Struggling to leave you
Lying on the floor,
My breath coming in heaves
I hear your voice beside me
Curled up in your cozy arms
I feel you shaking violently
I attempt to apoligize
But weakness pulls me under
Blankets and pillows envelope me
You sit beside me, staring at me
Holding a cross in your hands
Muttering a prayer to yourself
I force an apology
Hoping that you'll forgive me
You look surreal, foreign
You kiss my forehead
I'll know you'll help me
Save me from myself
Rescue me from my prison I've made.
