Heaven's Poems

Ill

I don't even know if I can do this

What if you killed a light that was actually the sun

You dimmed me until I became so hopeless

Convinced that I wasn't there until I was really gone

Every day you made me dig further down my grave

Had me manifesting I don't wake up the next day

The chokehold on my throat won't fade away

Tell me why when the bars are gone now it's harder to escape

I just need to breathe

Give me just one day

Have mercy on me

And I will be okay
