Four Steps

Pain
Misery
Despair
Death

Four Steps

Four steps
Four steps to healing
Just four steps away
Before I start peelings
Away the tattered skin
away the mortal sin,
the armoured pieces of heart,
I am tearing it apart.

Four steps
Four steps to dying
Four steps too close
while I am crying
tears of dreams gone by
of no of endless whys
Broken promises and pain
Of fighting and all in vain

Four steps
Four steps I know
I’ve seen them before
when I planned to go
To leave this world behind
To part my body and mind
I have not entirely killed my heart
because suicide is an art
