Perished tonight
by Katrina Princessa Walker

The sun touches my face and I bleed with pain
And I fall deeper into a hole that I myself dug.
Whisper my name until it drives me insane
As the tears fall I reach for the end of my pain. 
Why should I breathe if I only wither away in my gloom?
So much to see but nothing that can make me smile.
Just a decrepit piece of flesh that will perish tonight.
So I scream out as loud as I can,
Spitting out my anger, hurt, and rage at a deceiving reflection.
And I cup my face and begin to weep one again.
Oh, Jesus, if you're there... grant me this sin, let me go.
Let me decay in solemn slumber far away from here.
I fall to my knees, roll over and stare.
Slice my wrists up to my elbow and watch the pain seep out.
Good-bye to broken hearts, broken hopes, broken dreams, and broken lives.
Why live one more day just to die in the end...?
