In the beginning,
nothing made sense.
Broken promises,
with no made amends.

Bloodshed and pain,
so many lies.
Sadness and betrayal,
in shameless eyes.

What was I to do?
I tried everything!
Self inflicted pain
left only a sting.

No pain was enough,
to kill the evil inside.
I tried to run,
but there was nowhere to hide.

I thought that just maybe,
if I pulled the blade.
It would destroy the memories,
Of mistakes that I've made.

But in the end,
all I'm left with is blood.
Scars and regrets,
no it wasn't enough!

I just laid there praying,
"Please God end this all."
Could he hate me so much,
as to NOT let me fall?!

Again I lifted the knife,
the blood cleansed my soul.
With that I took my life,
leaving noone to know...

That as the darkness took me,
to a world of pain and fear.
I knew nothing could be worse,
than living Hell here!!
