Shoulder to Shoulder, I walk the line, with death's Angel at my side.

Corner to corner safety begs with pitch black darkness my only safe Haven.

Blood pumps everlastingly within, faster and faster it runs...

My mind, my eyes, my eye lids conflicts with the pain if comes will relieve all wounds inflicted by the sabre of Life.

The cold hard steely samurai I yield hoping to pierce my delicate, vulnerable skin.

Cut through me like butter and wait, watch the velvet red blood seep through,

Slowly through agonising pleasure I am cleansed of the beautiful flowers now fermented stuck within the creases, of my hopeful heart.

An eerie whisper in my ear seduces me, wanting me to succumb to deaths cry for peace

Pain, yet again the stepping stone to the next chapter towards life's greatest gifts which cannot be had without it.

Eventually those corners shall not shelter me any longer, death's Angel shall not be my companion,

they must propel me into the rays of light the true saviour,

that will initiate my re-birth onto the life giving pebbled path.

Though there are answers to the contrary of my illusion of peace,

the right, the now it is much easier to believe

That perhaps drawing the sword of death to my heart relinquishing it to the constraints of my body may lay the true answer I seek.

Perhaps the world I think I know may draw a smile for death that comes for me.

Perhaps realisation may come too late, the samurai may indeed claim one more victim.

Perhaps...

Light may not be enough after all.

Love in its purest form, without prejudice, without judgement, without ulterior motives,

Just love, the emotion for myself I must strive to accept to save myself from the clenches of hate.

Success must be the end result, but will it be?

The answer must be Yes for without it I am doomed.

Hi Jessie, this sounds like a cry for help.....maybe in the past....I hope?  It's a very intense and raw story indeed.
