Night

Night, would you please
Take me away
Swallow me up
Away from today

Being me deep down
To the depths where dreams lie
And keep me there safe
In your star-speckled sky

Knock me out cold
Incoherent at worst
And keep me locked there
In your expanse where I'm submersed

Hold me blind in your darkness
For I've seen far too much
Keep me still in the silence
I've felt enough touch

Let me be at peace
Let me get some rest
Night, take me away
I've grown far too depressed

Voices are too loud
The sun is too bright
I just want to drift in the arms
Of the unfathomable night

Here I Am

Mind: numb Cogs: still whirring... Body: aches Eyes: nothing occurring. There's life in here, but who turned the lights out. Who said "Forget it", then gave my brain the wipeout.

Painful Cycle

There you go again losing sense of pride and faith. Feeling worthless you piece of paper. Crumpled and ready to be thrown away. Be positive they say but looking up from the damage of blades.

This Life

This life, lost -I no longer believe the need. This life, too dark -I often, cry, bleed. This life, encompassing -takes too much out, doesn't let me scream.

Maybe..

Broken promises of a better day to come. We strive to go on lonelier than ever before. Thinking of those memories that cut like knives, we soon turn to things that can take our lives, but does it do.

I sound weak. I sound tired. I sound sick. Just don't talk to me. I'm done with you. I'm done with her. I hate myself. And I really do. Help me please. I am unloved. I feel my heart beating.

Hiding In The Deep

Hiding. In. The. Shadows deep. Barely on the ground. Living. In. My. Own world. No one else around. Taking. Over. In. And. Out I begin to zone. Want. You. All. Just please. Leave me alone. All. Alone.
