The Awaited Day

The day
I've been waiting
For has finally
Arrived
I lay there
On the floor
With the bloody knife
Gasping for air
Clinging to my last breath
Deaths hand
Reaches for me
Whispering
"You done your best.
Come now. It's time leave with me".
My life was hopeless
I wanted to flee
Throwing myself
Away into the arms
Of death
For eternity
Was my answer
I thought
It seemed
I closed my eyes
Wondering where I belong
Questioning myself
'Is this what
I really wanted ?
Or could I be wrong' ?
