As I lay in the dark.

As I lay in the dark,
I pray for a new journey to embark.

As I curl into a ball,
I wish for the heavens to fall.

As I let the sobs free,
I beg for life to suffocate me.

As I close my eyes,
I cry for my desire to die.

As I struggle to breath, 
I ask god why he's done this to me.

As l live in this life of lies,
I ask god why.

As I wish to stay alive,
I ask god to save my life.

I really like this!

Idk if this is what you were trying to get across, but it seems like you're saying that even when you want to die, and are in the depth of darkness you don't know whether to ask to die, or pray to be able to stay alive.

Thank you. I'm glad you like it. And you got the better end of the message lol. What you said is exactly what was bei said in this poem, but my feelings ATM are more depressed and dark. Iv let my emotions bottle up. And I think that bottle just exploded. Thanks again, and thanks for commenting.
