Hope in the Dark

You hold the knife
And wonder how to stop this pain
You don't want to die,
You don't want to live.
You simply want the pain to end.
The pain you feel inside is killing you
This life is destroying you
You wonder if there is any reason to live
Is there a world beyond the pain?
If there is, is there anyway to that world?
Or is a knife your only answer?
You drop your head and weep,
Desperate for hope
Empty
Dying

There is life beyond this
Beyond the graveyard of dreams
There is hope
There is light to illuminate this darkness
There is a love greater than your pain
There is healing for your soul
There is one who died to give you his life
Life without this crippling agony
He suffered so you could go free
