Eternity

As I stand at the edge of the abyss staring into darkness
I wonder how I got here and where my heart is
It seems so long now since I felt it beat with life
Haven't felt much at all since I looked into thy eternal night
The darkness has an energy that pulses through my body and mind
Causing decay in what's left of the good it can possibly find
I can feel my soul ever so slowly losing it's grip and slipping away
There can't be much left and when it's gone I know where i'll stay
For it was written in the stars HELL is where i'm destined to be
And now that my soul is gone I can feel the darkness comfort me.
