Inescapable Pain

Inescapable Pain

This pain,
I cannot live with it,
But I cannot avoid it,
It’s unbearably cutting into my mind,
Making me a terrible monster,
I cannot control it,
I cannot help it,
For no one can help me,
Not now and not ever,
To feel free once again,
I slit open my wrists,
As the red blood spills over,
The darkness closes in,
I willingly succumb to the darkness, wanting to be as free as possible,
I look around and my room is gone,
I’m in a dark corridor,
There is a light at the end,
I run towards it,
In hope for happiness,
It slips around the corner,
Leaving me alone,
I dare to take one more step,
With no more trace of the light,
I fade into darkness,
I think, “I am not alone.”
I have the darkness with me and my inescapable pain,
Once was what hurt me now gives me comfort,
I shall never leave it,
It is now me,
