Tempted

Standing on sanity’s edge

On the edge of everything I ever knew

Tempted to jump below

Into the infinite abyss

Of all that was cast aside

Tempted to let the boiling crimson

Warm my cold insides

Tempted to free myself

From the slavery of humanity

Tempted to cry hot tears

For all that I have lost

Tempted to satisfy the razor

To finally take what I crave

Tempted but not brave

I deny the blade
