A Wish For The Heart

A wish for the heart,
Trying to make myself a life,
Running away from the dark-
Leaving behind the knife.

Waiting for life to begin,
Searching the confines of my mind,
Wishing again and again
That life wouldn’t be so unkind.

My reality is shaded in crimson;
My world immersed in pain.
Deciding which way to run
To once again be sane.
