Literature Text

I am buried and broken in a pale heaven;
     Fighting for the rest of my life to stay afloat.

I said that I wanted more;
     But I run away from it all.

Finish me here…
     Now.

Look in my eyes when you kill me;
     You were all I ever wanted.

Nothing seemed to change
     But then I saw into you
     Saw who you were.

Now, it can be snowing in the middle of the night,
     I’d rather sleep alone than near you.

Come, and cut me down,
     I’m tired of your noose.
What if I?

I really enjoyed this. Very emotionally responsive and a just plain badass poem!
