Trapped

Life's Crossroads

I stand at the crossroads,

Deciding which way to go,

One path leads to redemption,

The other to a world of pain,

The path that will make me heal,

Is the one that scares me the most,

I am not used to feeling ok,

To not be in inner pain,

The path of pain,

Lets my heart go,

No need to breathe life,

As I don't have a life to live,

The crossroads call out to me,

Begging me to follow the light,

Wishing me to go towards redemption,

And forgive and forget the problems of the world,

I hear my heart beating in fear,

The comforting embrace of darkness,

Stills the pain of my mind,

Quieting the sounds of the earth,

A friend takes my hand,

Guiding me towards the light,

Begging me to accept the light,

Instead of the dark,

A pulse of warm heat enraptures me,

Telling me that the light's embrace is good,

A happy feeling builds up inside of me,

Making me feel whole,

I am not at the crossroads anymore,

I have finally chosen a path,

The darkness was holding me back,

The light will guide me to strength,

A loving light,

Holding my hand,

Keeping my heart safe,

Letting me finally live,

The darkness I used to love,

Was a silver, sharp blade,

But now, my light is the best,

And now I will live my life and breathe.
