Beautiful Havoc

One Life

You cannot hear the word's
that have made their nest
inside my aching head.

They cannot see the scars
that were made by your words
nor the blood upon my wrists.

I cannot fix the mistakes
that were made when I took
and wasted my only chance.

If only you could...
If only they weren't blind...
If only I had a second chance...

then maybe my one life
would last a bit longer.
