Till my Last Breath

My Pain

By Mercedes ChavezPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I scream, I shout

I need an escape,

A potential way out

It's not an ideal fate

But this pain is far more than I can take

So many tears have been shed

Let it all end for my sake

From the wounds I have bled

O death, I beg of you

Grant me this small mercy

I know nothing of what I should do

I know I am guilty

I admit to what I have done

But the other will not

I attempted to run

But running was not what I was taught

I will continue to fight

With all my might

Till my very last breath

About the Creator

Mercedes Chavez

Come with me, lets go on an adventure together, see the world through my eyes, let me paint a picture with my words, I promise you will be able to feel what I felt the first time I experienced it. Love, sadness and everything in between.
