The Inner Struggle

I stare out the window
When Im all alone
Longing for the change
That only I shall know
I want to be happy
To live my life in a dream
Instead I cry
On the verge of a scream
Hair clinging to a tear stained face
Blade in hand
Just a swipe over the surface
Just a quick cut of the wrist
And I shall have
My bittersweet release
Hand shaking uncontrollably
Eyes closed
The sharp edge
Creating an indention to my skin
Quickly I pull it away
Dropping it to the floor
Running relentlessly
Heading for the door
Outside I stare
Shouting to the heavens
I need release
Help me or let me die
This life I can no longer take
All others I have forsake
Without a second thought
No one seems to care
I fall to the ground
Breathless and weary
Wishing someone were there
Show me love
Give me hope
Dont shut me out I beg
Wrap your arms around me
Hold me tight
I need your strength
Or I shall lose this fight
And parrish
To be here no more
