When pain has gone on
Far too long
And takes on a life
Of its own
When there is no use
In fighting back
When there’s nothing
To attack
But the very person
You’ve become
When loss and grief
Abuse and mistrust
Have battered their way
Deep into your soul
When all you can do
Is barely control
When life keeps going
When you need
To keep giving
Your reason for living
Just to keep breathing
When every breath
Reminds you of death
When every choice
Brings back the voice
Of a ghost
Of yourself
When it’s so far
From right
All you have left
Is this life that you
Don’t recognize
When the storm calls
And you feel that need
To destroy all
Let me be the one
To take that fall
For you
With you
Always
