"The Choice"

Solitude confines itself in me

Discoloring everything I see

Your breath, it burns my eyes

Every time you speak you destroy another life

I failed today, once again

To resist the calling of your open hand

Abused and left with a broken mind

Full of piercing thoughts that kill me inside.

My desires control the way I respond

Face to face. My innocence gone.

Deceived to believe everything was fine

The time has come to make up my mind.

Will I let you lead me to continual darkness

Or step to the light and be forgiven for this?
