The Woods

Into the woods I fare
unwaivered by misery and despair

Shapeless looms the breaking tree
What is your fate
Child of misery?

Farther through I dare
Darkness answers my prayer

Fire sets flame to sticks gone dry
Why are you here child
If you still have more to cry?

Endless is this routine
The black around me begins to scream

Child of mine
We do not want you back
It is not your time!

I chase the dark to the end,
What a message I will send!

But no, no they say
This isn’t the answer
There is another way!

But I got my desire
And now I am the woods
That is that somber choir.

Suicide is never the answer. Never. You are loved and you are valued.
