Me Neither...

Have you ever, held your breath, underwater?

Held it until, you can’t anymore and the panic sets in?

And your body, shakes, to warn you,

And though there’s no sound, you can hear yourself scream?

No? Not yourself? Me neither…

Have you ever, tied a rope, around your neck?

Pulled it tighter and tighter, until you fell “asleep?”

Seen the dark space, where the little voice, speaks?

Then been woken, by pain and the sound of your screams?

No? Not at all? Me neither…

Have you ever, held a blade, against your skin?

Enjoying, it’s cool touch and the sensation, of tingling?

And as you push a little harder, the skin stretches…

And your body gets excited! By the action, by the pressure?

No? Not even once? Me neither…

Have you ever stood, at the platform, waiting for your train?

Looking down at the rails wondering, ”Which one is live again?”

You step passed, the yellow line, and begin to lean,

Then a voice inside you says, “Go ahead. End everything.”

No? Never a close call? Me neither…

I think my biggest problem is I never let people in but when I do let them in I can never stop caring about them
