A never-ending fall

T.W: GRUESOME IMAGERY + THEMES OF SUICIDE AND DEPRESSION

I once walked in a place of beauty,

A place where the sun always shined its vibrant Yellow.

Where nature filled every breath.

But the world's colour faded.

The plants withered away making

The place once full of life, a place of death.

The earth broke apart,

Falling into the darkness.

The gaping darkness trying to drag me under too.

Yet no one heard my screams of help

Even the angels knew I was done for.

I cluched to the soil and dead grass,

The pebbles piercing my skin.

Silent tears broke free from my eyes

As I felt the blood trickle down my arms like

Honey.

But neither the tears or blood brought life

Back to the world

A never-ending fall that will just keep bringing me

Back to you.

The home destroyed by darkness.

No matter how hard I tried

No matter the tears, bruises, scars.

Nothing brought the life back

To the place I called home.

Yet when my arms gave way,

Not strong enough to keep going.

He stared at me.

His eyes a midnight blue,

like the sea on a stormy night.

He held his arm out and grabbed onto me.

Stopping the never-ending fall.

Yet I needed the peace that came with the fall.

But he painted the world in colour,

It wasn't how it used to be

But I was lucky to see colour at all,

Lucky to be saved from the never-ending fall.
