On The Wings Of The Pills Poem by Violet Warren

I'm breaking apart, falling into shards of glass across this floor
dreaming again, waking up to this love that I have since ignored
falling in love with my own darkness, because I'm too scared of the light
but now I can't flee, so I'm running from me, as I'm staring into your eyes

this forsaken love has not been forgotten
my grave has been dug, but yet the hardest part is
breathing again, amidst my own sin; living up to the silence
I want to let you in, but I know it will begin
a change that I demise

please know that I will love you so
much more than you'll ever see
give every part of me, live to take breath from me
so you can just live your life alone

media will pass you by
if you would just close your eyes
and soak your sweet new life
I've given you chances
yet you delayed your advances
and I don't understand why

my hands are empty, my lungs aren't breathing
I am lying still
blissful peace has overtaken me
as I die on the wings of these pills
