Brink of Survival
Ever so lightly, I called upon the angel
The angel I felt that would tame my heart
I praised her with kisses and fulfilled all her wishes
Playing like a puppet in her hand from the start
I opted to make a choice, but that sad lonely voice
That rang in my ear day to day, wasn’t getting its way
So, it made me stay, for I had to pay
For my misguided ways
I had plenty of time to say I wasn’t fine
But the increase of lies led to my health to decline
I was at the pinnacle of my patience
For I knew that the angel’s rein wouldn’t stop until I was in peril
For until she was slain and I was once again sane
My lonely heart couldn’t remember my happiness again
Because until I departed
From that black art that called herself an angel
I would be stuck
And I, unfortunately, had the worst luck
Because this time, there would be no blade to hide behind
They asked me if I was okay, but I only pushed them away
Then tomorrow became today
And the overwhelming pressure hurt me in so many ways
Because I didn’t know the rules, or what I needed to prove
So, I gave myself away
Away to the angel who returned with an iron fist
And I tried to let her go
But all it did was get her pissed
She just filled my head with these thoughts and actions
What is left?
I asked myself as I got down on both knees
Bowing down to the angel that could never be pleased
I looked up to her, but she looked down on me
But what is there left to see
What is left?
And as she raised her hand, having something planned
For the little slave that she calls me
I found out her name which made me internally cringe
For I thought that there was no return, from what I had learned
That the only thing left was to allow my blood to churn
So, as I fell deeper and deeper into her control
That angel continued her rein
She feigned her innocence until I learned her name
And that name was
Suicide
I needed to get away
So, I took a moment to think
I went back to the time when my happiness wasn’t questioned
When I always made a positive impression
When my negative energy didn’t cause great tension
And that was the moment I realized that these harmful thoughts had to lessen
I had to forget about societies race
Forget about the judgement I would face
Forget about how I would be seen as a disgrace
Forget about how I might be replaced
And encase myself in a positive embrace
Because this Suicide bitch will NOT be the reason why I have fallen from grace
