Choose Ye This Day

I can’t sit I can’t stand

I just can’t

Tossing & turning I’m lost

Lost in fear

Lost in hope

Lost in love

My soul dies twice over just as the sun rises

I smell death so near I flinch from the impact

Its timing so in sync I stumble

Just as your fist makes contact

Your physicality I’d rather withstand

Rather than once more my spirit savagely raped

This moment begs I put two silver bullets to rest

My smile; my rarest treasure so many take it for granted

Light or dark it remains in place; my representative

Just don’t think for 1 second I can’t crack

Fold under pressure

Cry when I’m hurt

Hate to be alone

Panic when I’m drowning

Drowning…

I know if I don’t swim I can’t rise

I can’t be victorious

I know if I don’t float I can’t live

Today…..

Just once I choose death
