SIREN
The last few weeks have been brutal. I know in the very depths of my being that things will get better, but right now they’re just so hard.
SIREN
I stare at the water
It’s aqua waves calling
Inviting to slip under
Into Oblivion
I walk away
From the Sirens call
The blades in my hand
Beckoning tantalyzing
One quick swipe
And freedom
I walk away
From the Sirens call
Through the heart
The silver moonlight
Dances on the thinnest of knives
Kill the heart
That causes all your pain
I walk away
From the Sirens call
I walk away
From the Sirens call
FOR A LITTLE WHILE
The blood flows
Taking the pain
The heartache
With it
A temporary release
If only for a little while
Escape as the blood flows
The endorphin rush
Freedom at last
If only for a little while
Past and present
No longer matter
Only the here and now
As the blood flows
Bringing with it
Sweet release
If only for a little while
