Victim of my Own Insanity

Suicide
|
I throw myself down the stairs
Just to feel
And Agony never fails to produce
Trying to hold down my emotions
As I realize Pain will not fulfil this time
Gazing into the grimy windows
Wondering if they can give me
The satisfaction I crave
Tracing a dark design in the grime
This house has witnessed everything
And I make sure NOTHING leaves
Crying these forgotten, lonely tears
Amidst the echoing silence I weep
I stare into the murky windows
And my soul is drawn into it
Knowing I can't live with myself anymore
These four walls they entrap and encircle me
I need out, but not the way you think
I break a window into tiny slivers
And slowly wash them clean
(Don't want to die from infection)
Until they glitter like new
I close my eyes the dirt of all my actions,
My paranoia, my failures, and my fears
It shrieks at me piercing the deepest fragment of my soul
Tearing at my fortitude and my will,
But I know I must do this
I breathe in as my wrist murmurs out
And slowly the glass turns a rusty, sickly hue
I smile both content and intent
As the voices wage a war within me,
But I've already chosen sides
And my final chapter is being sung
My wrist hangs in torn, loose shreds
And I smile through my fog
I sway to my knees
Smearing 'good-bye' into the floor
I will never be found or missed
I've shut myself away for to long
A victim of my own insanity
