The Fall

I can already feel it
The Fall
right into my demons’ arms.
They’ll whisper sweet nothings
and give me false assurances
as I lay there,
tired and defeated.

I don’t fight
though I should.
I don’t resist
as they kiss me
and tell me that I’m alright,
even though
I know
that I’m far from it.

They’ll love me,
at least.
Unlike all those
who didn’t catch me
when I fell.

I’ll lie in their embrace –
let them tell me stories,
and sing haunting lullabies.
And as I sink deeper into their touch,
I’ll let the world pass me by;
A world I never fully felt apart of.

They’ll destroy me,
My demons.
Just know,
that I let them.

And when they release me
from their world of lies,
I’ll continue to fall
but into the arms of reality
this time.
And it willl hurt
but I enjoy this feeling,
of not feeling anything at all,
all too much.

So let me be.
Let me fall.
