Live This Lie

Every breath I take lets me know

That there is still time for me to let go

To let me know that there is still hope

Hope that I might survive

Because I really don’t want to live this lie

That's dark. I love it. I hope you do survive though. The best poetry often comes from not so nice a place. Love, Matt <3
