As I lay dying
#PhoenixRebirth
Often, I ponder why,
why was I put on this earth.
Failure, is what I used to relate to.
I could not find any self worth.
Alone and abandoned I felt inside.
Every day, I wished that I had died.
They would all be better off without me.
A broken spirit, I had no pride.
Then came the day, I was pierced by a blade.
Blood flowed from my body like a siv.
My lung filled with blood, my breathing....shallow.
I fought like hell to live.
As I took my last breath and died.
A single teardrop fell from my eye.
Do I fight or let go? I had to decide.
I never got to say goodbye.
I could not let it end this way.
With all my might, I started to breathe again on my own.
I was not going to die today.
I had too many reasons to stay.
