Death Row

welcome to my finale of my fears 
I told you the voices started to make me feel safe and sound 
They made everything seem so clear 
Sometime though I feel like I am on a never ending merry go round 
My nightmares have never felt more like a blessing 
Breaking lies and walls ,as I take breathe an dive in deep
Haunting the ways my skins crawls as I keep guessing 
Why I feel so scared to get so good sleep
My eyes wide open you strap down to keep me sain  
Changing my mind or thoughts don't come easy 
Damaged as I am all I wish I could just disappear 
As I tell you this all you say 
expect this and that I can't be fixed  
You says I have the right  feared 
The voices try to start to playing tricks 
Pushing harder to come through they get stronger 
I thought I could beat the illusion inside my head 
As I ask why do you want to the find the worst in me
  I am talking to the monster as it try to seep through I try to stop it dead
As monster and voices run wild and  free inside of me 
I let them go so I can try and  break free and flee 
But I realized I can never win as I tell you I realized what I done now I can welcome my death 
My worst fear right in front of my eyes 
You tell it will be all over as you put the posion in my vein  
Monster scream, the voices fade as my eyes closed
I now welcome and gacefully  finally start my last ...... 
Time of death  >/b>

I wonder what motivated this write Heather, what specifically I mean. I cannot say I've ever read a piece from this perspective. Very intriguing. Take care Heather
