I flail my arms

And my legs

My lungs about to collapse

Being compressed

It hurts so bad

Want to see the light

Dead might be better than this

But alive is the preference

Fear, panic,

Can't feel my legs anymore

Now my fingers

Shivering with the last of my strength

Gone....

Ever felt like that?? Sometimes life seems to suffocate me. The walls are pressing closer and closer until my head is so frazzled I can't bear it. Sometimes I want to just throw it all away, lose the pain, the torment. As if. Losing yourself is only going to add onto the suffering. Cough up the water from your lungs, turn your sunshine back on, put on a smile and your toughest suit of armor, and go out into the world, invincible, ready to face anything. Leave behind your sword, and fight with your good name, your ethics, and your sheer determination. We may be few, but now is our time. Time to rise above the rest and be everything we can possibly be. Take these words, and may good fortune be with you always. 

Into eternity, my brother, hail and farewell.
