lesser than yersterday

I cried because I was confused
I lost this war
The aches and pains I feel
They have no cure
And somewhere in the shadows
I had signed a deal with the devil

But still I choose to wander
The unwavering paths of hell
The light guiding me along
And somewhere in the midst of it all
I landed in a meadow
Falling asleep to a lullaby song

If thoughts were a clue
My mind is trying to figure out the puzzle
If I could pretend to be an angel
It makes me no better than the devil

Though I can't turn water into wine
I can count to you
While taking a step off the ledge
I say a prayer or two

Dark secrets were the price
Life an opportunist
I drove myself crazy
Trying to figure out my minds problems
In the end it wasn't worth it
My last breath was when I counted to two

Life chose to wait
It needed to think
But death chose its course
And he said it wasn't time yet

Water thick like blood
The air relieved my lungs
I laid back in wander
I watched as the light pierced the darkness
Maybe I can give it another chance

My pain was gone
The wounds needed treatment
I woke up to a white canvas
And this time I'm paintin with colour
Now I lay down in peace
And forget this mistake ever happened

This was very good!! Very touching and heart felt. I love seeing that I am not alone in this journey of life, and that there are so many that feel what I feel. Keep painting that picture, you are a wonderful artist. :)

I'm sure there are a few mistakes, and I know it isn't perfect but I am open to any good feedback if anyone is willing to give.
