No title

Holding my breath I reach for you.
This Hell that I reach across to touch,
       The Heaven I yearn for,
              The salvation I cry for.
I walk barefoot over broken glass
        my head held high and my pain runs deep.
Your healing touch, your embracing warmth
         I covet thee.
I witness demons as they grab at me
         I fall hard.
              I hear the crack.
                   I feel the knife.
                        I scream aloud.
Free me from my cell of thought,
         Save me from their burning grasps.
                   Rip me from their desperation
as it sucks against my skin.
I seek revenge.
    It's my right.
You're the only who can save me from this eternal night.

I cringe to the shadows,
       they are my home.
The pain you'll give me,
        Is all I know.
I lean on you,
         but you're free to go.
Be happy, be free,
         I can be alone.
