Prequel 3: Smoke and mirrorsA Chapter by Doogie"I hate you" I tell myself. As i feel the cool porcelain On my palms. Grabbing the sink I hunch over. Staring into my eyes The mirror reflects back A person I no longer know But looks so familiar What am I doing with my life I think, I wonder Pondering my choices As my heart aches like thunder. Things have never been the same Since that night many moons ago I've felt only alone Desperate for answers Rock bottom for to long But willing to end it all "It's only a kids game" ...I mutter As I light a candle My heart flutters. I look down Upon a bottle of pills Tempting me Seducing Intoxicating my thoughts My mind goes dark As well as the bathroom After I turn off the lights "Bloody mary" ...I whisper Tempting fate. Tempting death. Tempting my, will to live Why am I like this? Why am I doing this? I wonder Two more times Then permanent slumber What will I see I start to ponder What if it's a waste of time Or just another blunder Only one way to find out "Bloody Mary" ...I semi shout I start to feel barely alive Tears begin to fill my eye Sorrow chokes me Darkness controls me Am i on borrowed time? Random thoughts Plague my mind Will I die If I say it one more time? The candle light Flickers in the night. The dark feels colder Lonelier as I ache Maybe I shouldn't Tempt my fate I could just End this pain I grab the pill bottle And contemplate Tonight is the night There will be no debate Lost in my mind I cry in pain "Bloody Mary" ...Escapes my breathe The candle flickers I feel a cold chill Creep up my spine The bottle slips And falls to the floor I reach after it quick Then I fall on the floor Lights out Pitch black Darkness galore When I come to My head throbs in pain I feel the sensation Of blood pouring from my face I must have smashed the sink And knocked myself out I get up slowly and groggy While dazed and confused The candle went out So i turn on the lights Takes a second to adjust Before the moment of truth The mirror had a message Engraved on its face "Your will to die Is why you're alive So take this second chance To do something with your life" © 2021 Doogie |
