I Am Killing Me

I don't want to be here destroying myself
But no one else will find me here 
Alone and in the dark
Without even the pleasure of sharing company with time
I am all I have because I have lost everything
So what can I do when all I know is losing
With idle hands made only to tear down all I know
And all I have
This is who I am
I don't want to be here destroying myself
But nothing else and no one else is here
But me

This write is so sad...I have those dark days also..I lost my son five months ago and not a day goes by I don't think of him and call his name....I pray for your happiness as well as peace for us both....Blessings

It is a sad thing to lose someone who is that close to you. Just know each day will get better and I am happy that you could find a little solace in knowing that you are not alone in a time of experiencing great loss
