Into the Deep

Into the deep i shall descend and be no more...

Like a vanishing smoke into the skies,
My shadow will evaporate and never be seen.

On that day, the sun will rise to numb your hearts,
And set with your thoughts polluted with grief.

The leaking tears of my absence will impale your emotions
For without my presence, your life will be the same no more

I will, with peace land on the bed of my forefathers
Not as loud as i came but as silent as peace itself...

And like rubbish into the bin,
You will dump and abandon me into the deep
Where the roots of the grass will be naurished by my melting flesh and blood.
