The Last Battle

Falling

Faster and faster

Deeper and deeper

Into the dark hole

That used to be

My happy carefree mind

But now it is filled

With battles

And thoughts

Of letting go

Blood has been shed

And pounds have been lost

But my mind

Is far from done

With torturing me

Day by day

Week by week

Month by month

Year by year.

My mind won't let me

Forget the past

And all the mistakes I've made

That have made me

This messed up shit

That I am today.

My mind won't let me

See a future for myself

Convincing me

That there is no hope

No future in store.

So I obey

My mind

A slave to it

Each day.

I stood on a ledge

Ten stories up

I looked down

At the world below

Telling my mind

This is it

This is the last time

You will control me

Then....

I jumped.

But I will always remember

My death was the first

And last thing

My mind and I ever agreed on.
