The Question of a Lost Soul

Sleep deprived. 
Blood shot eyes
Can't decide,
Shall i live?
Or shall i die?
Am i worth the pity the world has to offer?
They've tossed it at my feet. 
Feeling it's warmth, 
Shall i pick it up?
Or shall i flee?
Run away from this blood thirsty place?
The wool has been placed
over my eyes.
I've been beaten to a pulp by all there lies. 
So curled up in this ball shaking in pain i ask myself one last time. 
Shall i live? 
Or shall i die?
