I Want to Live
This can either be taken as a continuation of the other poem (i want to die) or can be taken as a standalone poem.
—————————————————————————————————————————-
i waited for the countdown to end
i waited for the final bell to ring
for the eternal escape
a wretched life i once lived
a life that no one should have
a life that is not my choice
a life that is not my choice
yet i played the lead role in it
a role that was played to perfection from my end
now at a time when the final curtain is very close to being drawn
i want to rewrite the whole story once again
a story that is full of happiness
a story that is so full of joy
a story that i only lived in my dreams
a dream that i want to make a reality
a reality of a dream coming true
a story, once re-enacted
will fulfill my desires
will fulfill my destiny
a story that i so desperately want to write
will now remain uncompleted
the countdown has already begun
the countdown from life to death
with the blood slowly trickling away
and the story still uncomplete
and the clock slowly ticking away
i want to live
i want to live, once again
i want to live, once again
to rewrite the story
the story that is my life!
