Momentary
Momentary"
Trapped by the urge to purge
To gain that sweet momentary pleasure that only ends in pain..
I search my brain for a fragment of willpower.
It's all but gone...
Willpower or powerlessness
I give up on one and fall in to the other.
Smothered in self pitty
Saying its OKAY! try again tomorrow but tomorrow is NOW! and now lasts forever.
So i think I'm real clever and write some words on a page that say
TRY AGAIN FOREVER.

Swinging from a tree
Hanging, swinging from a tree.
I want to die.
I keep seeing myself hanging, swinging from a tree. For three days no one finds me the stench it wafts from me. No need to take me down and lift the smile up from my face. Leave me there hanging, up here it is so free. It's brings a kind of peace to imagine such a thing. To picture myself hanging, swinging from a tree.
I can't seem to shake it, that this lifes just not for me. It burns so deep within me! A desire for to end. No words seem to change it and for some that is scary, but to me it's sort of thrilling. To picture myself...
