Slow Down and Breathe

Summary

Emotions;
Tick-Tock, there goes the clock,
Ticking by the second,
The time tells me how long I’ll last,

It’ll look into my past and take its guess,
Each time it’s told me I’ll live a second longer,
And no I don’t feel that much stronger,

I can’t hold on,
I’m slipping now,
Slipping from the real world,

Into another dream,
And now my head starts to ache,
And my hands start to shake

My hand reaches for the blade,
Each slice gets deeper each time,
Each slice is a memory of mine,

Nobody knew they were unkind,
What your about to find,
Is the note I wrote for hours,

As I start slipping in,
It gets darker,
Now you’ve found me,

A girl laying there,
All they do is stare,
Not knowing what to do,

Then one falls to the ground,
It’s a deadly sound,
The others follow behind,

They never knew she was in that state of mind,
They never chose to take a peek,
And now it’s her secrets they seek,

Take a breath now
For she’s in a better place,
Here with the ones who have already left,

And now she’s became to be,
The girl she’s always wanted to see,
She was living a lie,

But now it’s those she loves
She made cry,
Friends stay awake and stare at the ceiling,

Feeling the guilt,
Her best-friend doesn’t eat,
Her ex starts the cutting,

Because it’s her he’s always been loving,
Her mother wishes she knew the truth,
Her father wishes he could’ve cared that much more,

And therefore
The girl realised they did care,
She now regrets every slice,

She wishes she took the advice,
Now once again,
She feels the hurting.
