Hanging by a Thread (please comment)

by E - Capricorn

I know your hanging on by a thread
The slightest touch would send you over the edge
You think your life and dreams are finished
Your will to survive has diminished

You want to run away from all your troubles
Abandon life, enflict remorse upon the others
Destroy the times that we could share together
Refuse the help you need to find the answers

You want to hide behind this mask you have constructed
Not revealing the true identity that has been forsaken
As your own abductor, you've been abducted
But now its time to open your eyes and awaken

Anger can only hold you bondage
Stealing the very air you breathe
What holds you so tight inside?
Is it the demons that live within?

There is only so much I can do
For a soul as damaged as you
But I am willing to try
As long as you keep your stride
