I wrote my own ending: Bled out from wounds I thought beyond mending I reached into the void The darkness touched me with her hands She kissed my forehead Whispered to me: "Baby, it's not time to meet me yet." Maybe that's what hurt the most Not even the totality death could even bear to hold me close So I let go Tear down my walls And watch my insides blow apart Cause when I fall I'm gonna give it my whole heart My greatest asset My biggest weakness I'll open up Because I chose to believe this I made a choice to believe this We preach compassion But then refuse to love ourselves Hated my darkness Still I couldn't ask for help Still asking questions Waiting for you all to leave I cannot steep in love When I am loathing me I reached into the void And darkness touched me with her hands She kissed my forehead Whispered to me: "Baby, it's not time to meet me yet." And that's when everything went still A single thought before I fell: Compassion without compromise Can only thrive When I include myself Nevertheless, I persisted Nevertheless, I resist Nevertheless, I persisted Nevertheless, I exist
