living and dying slowly [re-written]A Poem by shanea re-written peice
Living and dying slowly
(New title: crash down)
These days grow shorter
These nights grow longer
I can't feel the time anymore
The blades grow lighter
The scars grow heavier
I can't feel myself anymore
I'm told it's all in my head
I know life isn’t meant to feel like this
Waiting all day for the sun to die
Crash down upon me
Take me away
Sleep seem to be the only escape
Though the dreams never help
Come
Take me away to a better place
Somewhere I can be myself
I try to cut you out
So I won't bring you down
The blood pools and rises
Ready to leave
But it's never enough
It's never enough
I'm told it's all in my head
I know life isn’t meant to feel like this
Waiting all day for the sun to die
Crash down upon me
Take me away
It's all in my head
So I'm told
Life isn’t supposed to feel like this
I wait all night for the sun to rise
Take my ashes away
