Poetry: I Want To Live

Posted on 2018/11/26 by Maison Moonchild

I want to live

All

I want

Is to live

But

I’m losing this battle

With myself

A civil war

Inside my brain

Stay alive

I beg

Long enough

To outlive it

To emerge from the darkneas

Don’t become it’s victim

Don’t fall prey to its clutches

Fight

Stay alive

Outsmart it

One day

You will wish

I will wish

That you had stayed
