kissing death

​It settled on my back 
Like an anvil crushing my spine, 
The black fog of depression 
Emerging from my own pores
Began to suffocate me. 

Like a monsoon following a forrest fire 
It swept in
Smothering every flame 
That ignited my will to live.
and Like a rabid dog gnawing the fur
and Flesh from her own paw
I tried to severe my mortal limb, 

i needed To liberate myself from this hell 

But another part of me knew
This life could be heaven too
So I held myself in the dark,  
Comforting the dreary girl 
With dead eyes,
she is full of hate
but she deserves love too
So I've learned how to
Kiss her even when she is trying to kill me
