Peace

Death

peace

colors of life swirl around

its christmas time, time for joy,

the highway is a cold place

a place where one can die

you stand in the middle of the road

and you cry.

insides are crawling

the ones i hear are far away

no one would understand whats inside.

my body leaves at night

soaring with a owl, taking flight

i dont want to return,

happiness,

its just a word,

for in this life of lies and decet

one cannot truely be happy.

lonliness,

engulfs my soul,

my very being, my very fiber,

i try to reach out but no one listens,

things inside

cant talk about

painful,

i take a sleep aid just to relax,

then get scolded because i turn to them,

thiere is no other help for sleep

no help for that crawly wierd feeling

my darkness, my safety

my pain a long history,

one will be around for awhile

then gone again,

that gun looked good, just so easy

one pull and sleep will come to stay.

but whether it is cutting wrists a little

or taking pills

it never happens like i would like

to sleep, just sleep, forever.
