Today
Yesterday
And the day before
I walked down a path of uncertainty

Investing my time into the unknown
Breathing the air that slowly killed my dream

The smoke clings to my lungs as if to deprive them
I gasp for air
A slow death

This dreamless night

I’ve forgotten what the beautiful things look like.

Today
Yesterday
And the day before

I have found myself knocking at death’s door

Too afraid to barge in
Too stubborn to leave

Today
Yesterday
And the day before

I have found myself knocking at heaven’s door

Begging for the pain to end
