Death delights
The ears of my mind
Like earmuffs quiet the world
But all the time
My soul wants to find
Listless dreams
In your eyes
Gentle cries
Escape your lips
Like pleading eyes seek love
And I just want
To reach above,
Satisfying
Death and life
You speak softly
Your words are fragile
You want to please me
When I want you happy
Tell me we'll never
Ourselves sever
For when I consider
The calming slit
Of knife against skin
You're in my thoughts
And I stop
So I can begin again
Softly my soul cries
Shedding discreet tears
I cannot let
My disquiet
Feed the fear
In your heart
That things aren't
What they are
Your dreams
And hopes
And life to lead
Are more important to me
Than my fragile
Sanity
Than my wistful
Allergy
To life.
Your comradery
Is the balm I need
So long as things you seek
Remain in your reach
Together, we
Reach for the skies
Together, we
Can sing or cry
Together, we
Live, love, and die
So long as my
Inner death and pained eye
Don't end the happy sigh
From your lips
When your life goes right.

If you know Jesus Christ as your Savior, then let us praise God together!
If not, then I pray that you come to recognize Him as the only way of salvation from your sins, which earn you God's wrath and just punishment in Hell. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no one will go to Heaven but through repentance from their sins and believing in Him.
If you have any questions, comment or PM me! I'd love to talk. <3
God bless!
