A Solution For Eternity

Mon, 02/24/2014 - 18:23 -- sbrew24

I tried to drown myself in the bathtub

But I didn’t want to die

But you see I didn’t want to survive

 

I lost my freedom when I lost my

Passion

In everything I did I lost all

Satisfaction

 

I ask you where have I gone?

What happened to feel so lost

What did it cost?

 

When I killed you did you scream?

As you sank below the surface

Could you breath?

 

I didn’t suffer, because I “forgot” to

Try.

I couldn’t breath when you

Anchored me

Under the tears, into a salty sea

 

But I still survived, living another day

Of this life.

Perhaps tomorrow I will drown,

Perhaps tomorrow it won’t turn

Around.

Perhaps tomorrow you will see

What’s become of me.

 

You will truly see me, wet and rotten

But clear and clean

As after all this I will finally be seen.

 

No one should want to die

Living should not be so painful you

Can only cry.

Suicide should never be

A solution, for eternity.

 

Solve this problem, and the world will see,

A happier, brighter sense of me.
