Into the darkness you created
Chaos ensued due to your habits
Money lost to the bottle
No lights
No heat
No water
No
Food
Struggling can’t you see?
Your choices created reality
My reality
My world
Where bullies found my weakness
Saw right to the heart of
A life already in pain
No strength
No choice
No where to hide
Darkness found me
And I struggled
I fell into it and
My soul started to
Bleed
It felt as if it wouldn’t end
Until I couldn’t stand
In the darkness
I stood before the cabinet
Ready for my horror
To be
Over
There was no one
To stop me
That was when a miracle happened
I walked away
And still suffered the darkness
In my fate
Surrounded by your choices
I thought the darkness would
Never end
Until I started to find
My way
Out
Into the light I slowly
Climbed up
Into my own skin
Into who I was
Into who I am
I found my voice
But you are still there
In your darkness
I see you suffering
And I wish you
An easy passing
Into
The next stage
Death
Everyone meets it
Eventually we all will find
Our journey at that end
May your death be without pain
Even when you caused me mine
May your death be without suffering
Even when you caused me mine
May your death come quickly
And may my healing do the same.
