The Corner

Have you ever been driven in a place of your life you felt you could never return from? A place you mentally sink to when life is bearing down on upon you? What is that place to you?

This corner here contains so much memories within its space,
My silent tears soaked into the wood of the floor threatening to swell,
Cemented into this spot is where my soul will dwell.
As I grip my legs in this tight embrace,
I pray to whoever to be my saving grace.

As I close my eyes these questions come to mind:
Why am I so pitiful?
Why do I feel so worthless?
Why does love continue to slip through my fingers?
How long must I suffer?
Why can no one hear my cries?
Would anyone care if I shriveled up and died?
Here come those tears again staining my face,
Why have I been stuck in this awful place?
Why was I even born?
My heart feels so torn.
Maybe I'm destined to be forgotten,
Life wasn't meant for me in the first place.
Maybe if I ended it all by pulling the trigger,
My brains plastering the wall and turning it into a tapestry of my pain.
To be honest...
I just don't know where to go from here,
It's so cold here in this space,
The corner that knows me better than myself,
Keeps me contained in its hollow embrace.

The Corner,
Hear me as I speak loud and clear!
You may have me now,
But the end is surely near.
As my strength returns and I break these chains,
Your existence will falter and sunshine will only remain.
