The End

a single tear

so far yet so near

to the brink of insanity

to the edge of my humanity

if I go any further into this deep dark abyss

then I just might reach the end of this tryst

the edge of the knife is just so tempting

it holds a promise that is never empty

the promise of pain use to release

to release the pain locked inside not at peace

to show on the skin

the scars that hide within

to hold the mark of a moment

to show a time of torment

to show that the mask may hide the pain

but the skin will bear the shame

of trusting others just too much

of trusting them enough to let them touch

our inner self, our core, our love

then be pushed away with an easy shove

easy for them, but painful no less

it’s a suicide that leaves no mess

it is death in the heart

it is death at the start

the start of the end

the end of our life

the end of our strifethe edge of the knife

is all it takes to bring about

THE END.
