Re: Mercy Killing
Laying in a pool of darkness staring into the night, I hold back tears and stifle emotions with all of my might. There's a hollowness inside me, A pain and vulnerability I don't want the world to see. Facing the reality of all taht I've lost, it seems like the world is at a standstill; life has been paused. Like an unlit candle trying to find its spark, I try not to let past wounds affect me, though they've definitely left a mark. Fighting all temptation of seeing my blood dripping, I blaze to haze out memories and keep myself from tripping. Succumbing to the notion of death gets harder to resist, because I realize how much betrayal and misery my life truly consists. Each passing day only leaves me more alone and afraid, Not knowing how long I can keep up with this charade. I give up on life, it's too hard of a test, My soul died long ago, it's time to put this body to rest....
That is a beautiful piece of poetry...even though I do not agree with the end of it....The Body and the soul belongs to Allah, with us on a loan:)...Treating oneself by upholding one's truth and leaving all the hurt behind...wash it all away..."This too shall pass!!"
