DARKNESS
The darkness settles in
And consumes my very being.
No more light inside this inner cell
Only coldness and the burning fires of hell.
Love won, and love lost once again.
But my love will never see the light of day,
Because the darkness comes
And drives it away.
I've learned my lesson and learned it well
There is no true love,
There is no peace
Only pain, sorrow, and lonliness
Closing in on me.
So i welcome with open arms
This darkness that has now consumed me,
No more will i feel this way,
As death comes to take all the pain away.
So hear me now,
All those with open ears,
As i set in motion
This one last act of quenching my fears.
Death will come swiftly and without reprise,
As you stare at this pitiful wretched body
With wide open eyes.
Keeping in mind that it was you that i had in mind.
