Empty

My mind an empty canvas,
My home a wish,
What is it all called for?

The world so dark and unforgiving,
Turns my wishes into my deaths.
We won't survive much longer.

I feel my heart beat waver,
The songs the birds sing
No longer go in my favor.

If I had a pistol,
Would I put it to my head tonight,
To use that trigger in a final act?

If you had a gun tonight,
Would I beg you to aim for me
And shoot with all your might?

I plead to the sky,
If anyone drives and sees me,
They shall step upon that brake,

So that when I don't move-
Because I want them to hit me and now me down-
It can't come to pass.

So maybe one day I can be thankful for what didn't happen,
Even if I pray for it now sometimes.
An accident.

Just an accident,
So no one would feel bad,
For something that I've wanted all along.

~Me, March 27
