To The End!

“I love you!”

A phrase medicinal in nature.
One we all need to hear when our hearts favor pain buried in its own hollowed core.
One I’ve needed to hear while the Devil keeps knocking on my door,
Everyday I wake for a chance to even a score with myself.
Opening a journal at some point during the day rather than a dime bag for enough joints,
Clouding my eyes from seeing truths I’ve ignored at a price…

How I might die alone without every hearing it again.
A reality I’ve made peace with until the day that I am,
Dead…

If you haven’t heard it in a while,
I love you!
Until the end…
