Please be Gentle

jdblake

Let my dreams lie where they are tonight

 

In seclusion from my thoughts

I only ask for one night of freedom

Of not remembering I am broken

 

I need this night

For my bones grow weary

Playing a song of early death

Breaking to the slightest sign of distress

 

I am on the edge of living 

And the ground being my home

For I am weak from the blows to my heart

And broken from the deterioration of my soul

 

When will it end

When will I no longer feel cold

I am bleeding  slowly

With no way of stopping it

 

I will be happy with resolution

Either the resolution of my pain

Or a plan to come back from the deepest of my caves

Because I am lost in my darkness

 

I have one last prayer

One prayer that I have saved for my final breaths

And I have saved it for you

Those who still live

    This is very beautiful, relatable, and well written. If you ever need to talk, let me know and I'm there.
