MISPLACEDhaDESPONDENCY


She carefully caresses the piece of metal
As it glimmers in the dim light of recollection
Of fading memories, which slice through her like a razor
And cloud her irrational mind with false perceptions

Lost in the past, drowning in the future
One slip and everything starts to flow
Bleeding out all of her anguish
And bathing her in unexpected fear

Now she's willing for the platelets of life to clog her turmoil
As the room spirals around her, a mosaic of colours
Sharp reds and blacks
Bright flashes of white in her unseeing eyes

She's robbed herself of happiness, shattered all of her lifelines
Lured in by the feeling of hopeless; seduced by the concept of an easy route
A selfish act of violence, now a desperate struggle for life
And time's run out
