I Won

by TearsLeftUndried   Jan 16, 2007


I told myself I wouldn't
I said "no way I'm done"
But something inside me said no!
It's not over until I've won.

I tried to ignore the voice.
But it didn't work, you see?
He kept coming back for more
He kept coming back for me.

I walked to my room,
Full of darkness and despair.
I opened up my drawer,
To see what was lying there.

My razor,
The one I used to call "friend"
The only one that was there for me,
When my long days would not end.

Do it, do it said the voice,
Just one little swipe my dear
Just one and It'll all be over
Just one and you'll have no more tears.

I thought hard about this decision
Would I be happier, I said?
No more lies no more hate?
Is it better to be dead??

Then I thought about my family
Mom, dad, and sis
How could I be so selfish
To even think of this?

I slammed my razor down
I said "no way I'm done"
I told him that he lost
And I told him that I won...

    I like this one. i've been in the same situation. just remember how hard it was to break the habit, and how easy it is to go back.
