Carpet making red indentations

Upon my sweaty tearful  face

Lifting my head slowly up to see

A bright light shining ahead of me

 

Massive flames all around my body

Burning the flesh and the hairs

My eyes squinting not by light

But focusing on the real truth finally

 

The doubts like a sweet song fading away

The pain now becoming what I accept

Knowing that I'll never be okay

Even though I'm the only one who does

 

Sick and tired with every breath

Realizing all the wasted years

Forgetting what is important in life

I walk slowly towards the light

 

Calmly reaching the light I turn around

Her face and those doubts drifting

Smiling sweetly at her face so proud

It fades away as she's not really there

 

I turn and face the light again

Sighing I slowly step into the blindness

The knife drops out of my hand

And a thump is heard from below
