My shining temptation

by blindedxxbyxxlove   Dec 4, 2005


**I know its kinda long but please read and comment**

All in one moment
You broke down my wall
In one single night
I took my greatest fall

As I lay in bed
My eyes start to burn
I have to deal with this alone
I've run out of places to turn

For every door I try to open
A deadlock found on the other side
Stopped me from starting off new
I have run out of corners to hide

I lean over to turn out the light
But something catches my eye
Its shining so bright is blinds me
When I see, I let out a sigh

This shiny little razor blade
That lay so close to me
Is drawing me in closer and closer
Its trying to set me free

With this shining temptation
I could end it all today
Take away the pain, the tears the hate
And end this disarray

As I go to reach for it
To say my final good-byes
My heart begins to ache
And I begin to cry

I think of my friends who did this
who cut and it ruined their lives
It hurt me to see them like that
But they healed with the tick of time

I think of the man I love the most
My angel from up above
The person who always makes me laugh
the wings to my snow white dove

I think of my family
And how much they truly care
They helped me through my hardest times
Still, do I do it? do I dare?

I reach over and pick it up
I hold it in my hand
I see my reflection in the steel
There's been a change in plans

For a moment the thought was perfect
I thought that no one would mind
That I would be just another
Another fallen angel left behind

Even though this shiny temptation
That lay so close to me
It seemed to perfect it felt so right
I just realized it wasn't for me

I put it in the back of my drawer
I lean over to turn out my light
I say my prayers and wipe my tears
And I quietly whisper "good night..."

    Oh, baby. Why do you always make me cry? You scared me so bad. I thought you were going to turn out like me. Sissy, that is something I never want to happen to you. Do you understand me? You have got so much to live for. There are so many people who love you. You've got me, Missy, Brittney, and Mike. You know you've got lots of places to turn. We will never turn our backs on you, ever! You have been there for me for everything, even if you didn't agree with why I cut, cried, or lost weight. You were there for me. But, please, don't screw everything up like I did. You are worth so much more than that! I love you, you know that. Nothing you do could ever change that!
