Damn

Drowning
I submerge under a black abyss
Wounds bleeding
Crimson swoons
I'm minutes away from my long awaited
                 PERISH.

I feel my soul escape its
                              chamber
           I watch it
Hang in the air
              DROP
Break through the floor
 Black as the night sky
It makes it's way to the hands 
            of Satan


               NO!


Bring my soul back to me
    I don't want to die
Give me a tourniquet to
            stop the blood
    Before I...
         DAMN.
