Eternal Sleep

Eternal sleep! cozy and might,
the morning in Eden's bright,
canopy of happiness, sieving joy's light.

Touch of freedom, kiss of esteem
pumping all back , fair redeem! 

Sweet,sweet sleep,
never on this land again, to rise and weep.

Slit on throat, kiss of blade
A garland around the nape,
driven by sorrow,poison in marrow.

Fall to rise,again to wise.
Torn soul soon be knit,
in the new world, perfectly fit.

The path is scary, not the work of fairy
Alas! the only lane,
jigsaw of hatred, blame game.

so erase the life theory, 
create a new story.

But the escape is forever,
Heard of heaven and hell,live never.

Once gone, gone for eternal
no breath again, no beat to mingle.

Though might, thou art full of vice
mislead the weak, to a path bleak.

a slit, not the sole cut of life.
So disperse i should, thick clouds over my sanity would
baffle my mind, Lord! strengthen one more time.

Dear courage you're the guide,
'Eternal sleep' run away and hide.

I'm the man who can build fate,
 can ask the slumber to wait.
