Dear Lord, Please Take Me

A long twisted road,
I no longer have a soul.
I lost it the day,
I had to let you go.
A bitter young woman I have become,
My feelings now are only one.
The hatered I have torwards myself,
Closeness?
No, I can't let no one.
Please don't ask why.
Please don't try.
If you do, my reasons will only make you cry.
My heart has turned the color of night,
For me to love again, will be a great fight.
I hate everything,
Day and night.
So Dear Lord,
As I lay here asleep please end all this hate in me 
and take my life tonight.

Darkness before the dawn. You are surrounded by much darkness, so you are due for a bright dawn. Don't you give up or in now, Amanda. You touched me.
