What would tomorrow be like
If I wasn't dead?
Would something change
To give me hope instead?
Perhaps I could cry
Show a vulnerable side
Without fear of becoming
A cautionary tale
What will tomorrow be like
If I'm still alive?
If I find the courage
To survive
The endless reminders
Of my poor decisions
Failures, shortcomings, and lies
What would tomorrow be like
If I wasn't dead?
If I traded insecurity
For a confident head
If I was allowed to feel sorry
For myself without being judged
Beaten, flogged, and bled
