Early Mourning

Here I sit
In the early morning
Without a bit of sleep

Here I sit
Deeply mourning
And so I gently weep

Life, coarse and unforgiving
Throws me about like sand 
In a sea, unrelenting
Making its way to land

The moon
A soft sliver of white
Illuminates the sky
And brings conviction
To give up the fight
And allow myself to die
