Dead To the World
My blood is crimson red
Stained me so
I left alone cold and dead
The pain is so revealing
It is all I feel no joy in my heart
Dread and misery overcome me
I am left alone in the shadows of darkness
Where suffocation and agony is my friend
No longer do I find comfort in my keeping
Depression and mental illness has taken over me
I am drowning in my darkness
I am sinking beneath the surface
While all I enjoy is to sit in the cold rain
To stare in the space
Where emptiness is all I see
No one around me to save me from the pit of sorrows
No Earthly life to shake me from the bottom that I am at
I have given up this life
I have sunk to the hell of the ship
I have thrown myself over board
There is no hope anymore.
