Hanging on the rope of lies

I’m hanging on a rope of lies hanging on for dear life. I don’t know what got me today but I gotta let go this rope is cutting me, deep in my hands with small glass shards ripping through my skin like a fiber glass patch. Cutting into your skin eating you alive you are hanging on the rope of lies but how many days will you have to hang on when it’s easier to let go. If I let go to the rope of lies I’ll fall into a black bliss oblivion under my feet tonight it would be easier and it will make both lives easy but for the sake of loving someone I can’t let go in fear of losing everything. The rope is cutting deeper and deeper into the skin it’s cutting me open alive this killing me within. I’m just let it go and lose everything I came to know expect the worst and hopefully get the best just let go and deal with the consequences but just to never again grab on to a rope of lies ever again because if you grab the rope again you’ll be on that for a long time cus once you grab onto the rope of lies to get down it’s gonna be a hard fu cking time down you gotta face reality at the end of the fall and for some reason I can’t handle that at all. Just like the rope with the Razors making your hands bleed deep the rope of lies is worse it makes you fall into the unknown the razors on the rope is bullying in itself and you can let go of a bully better than letting go of a lie you are hiding from someone you know Remember that when your mind goes blank and flat to never hang on to the rope of lies it will tie you in and sometimes it will never let you leave again
