Love\death
 
 
The room is dark, as I lay awake staring into nothingness
The energy from my thoughts could light the deepest abyss
I am no longer in a drunken slumber that had numbed my soul
An unexpected flame has torched across my heart exposing the largest hole
Taking a moment to catch my breath
Trying to stop the thoughts that is caressing me from beneath
I have been dead inside for so very long that it had been forgotten
Now that I have awakened the past feels so rotten
I see what I want and it is right there
Sometimes it is as simple as a stare
I have wanted to die when I was dead
But now that I have awakened death is what I dread
I blink my eyes slowly to rest my weary lids
Pacing thoughts of you; as I wish I could make a bid
I want to fall asleep to close the hours till morning
To arrive at the place to satisfy my longing
I beg to you that exists far above
To not take me now for I am in love
