Embracing Death


Fear death?-- to feel the sharp blades on my wrist
Oozing deep red liquid, outlining my fragile arm
Pain twinged in my once steady crest
I'm almost there, away from anybody's harm
Darkness awaits the struggles of my soul
I feel numb, unshaken yet creepy
Reaching for the light, coffee cups started to fall
No, I am finally free!

This strife will be over, what have I gained?
Built paper walls around me, unimaginably high
The chapter’s over, black ink smudges remained
Breathing in and out, fighting for air; Sigh! Sigh!
I was a fighter but can't stand no more
Watching closely how demise covered my eyes
Is this life really worth living for?
Misconception, failures, hatred and lies...

Please allow me to taste freedom and peace
Let me embrace death, the whole of it
Hoping this time I will see a new light
To bear the pain, to cherish memories, to forget
To savour my last minute, though this isn't right
Whilst this sounds morbid, at last I am fine
Fear death?-- 
Nah, I would gladly embrace mine.
