Close your eyes and dream.
Have you ever seen me cry?
Have you ever seen me bleed?
Your voice makes everything alright.
You watch me as I take my life.
Your gentle lips touch my skin,
And I know that I will sin.
I let you go and walk away.
I close my eyes and begin to pray,
"Dear Lord, I know I can't remain.
Please take this wretched life from me.
Make them cry and die for me."
I open my eyes and look at you.
I say, "Goodbye" and "I love you."
I hold the knife in my clenched fist.
I take a breath and slice my wrists.
I feel no pain and I do not cry.
I only lie and wait to die.
Your voice is now a whisper.
I wish I could see your face.
I cannot go back, it's already done.
I don't want to go to that place.
I see a light like the sun.
I wish I hadn't done this!
I think of you and pray
That you will be okay.
I want to live...
