Clinging for life

My body's pulling me away,

But my mind is holding on,

It's like clinging for life to a cliff face,

But my arms are not that strong,

Like I'm tied above a bed of thorns,

Searching for your face for hope,

Thinking you'd be the one to help me out,

But you were the one who cut the rope,

Yet you wonder why I'm slow to trust,

Why my true self's never shown,

While you stand there with your slingshot,

Pelting me with stones,

You don't see the tears I cry at night,

Alone beneath my sheets,

You don't know how close I'm coming,

To admitting my defeat,

And if you ever learn the pain you wrought,

If you ever learn to care,

Don't bother trying to make things right,

Because I will not be there.
