Look At Me Now

Breath is supressed, I live no more.
Life is compressed, when there's nothing to live for.
Release the rope, around my throat.
No more hope, as I scream on death's boat.
Look at me now, I scream in your face.
Don't know why or how, but I'm free of this place.
Betrayed once again, by fate's unyeilding knife.
Everything's a sin, in my unfaithful life.
So tired of tears, falling from my eyes.
Can't fight fears, can't succumb cries.
What can I do, for the girl I love?
But I always see you, so she's the one I dream of.
Look at me now, Having HER!
I refuse to bow, because our love is sure.
So you smile, laugh all you can.
In a little while, life for me will ban.
All these things, I will always hate.
Her love brings, my heart to life's state.
Say all your goodbyes, now I'm fallin.
Our hate flies, no more callin.
I feel your poison, as I fall to sleep.
Now I'm done, I know you don't weep.
It's my time, to rise above.
Just another rhyme, giving her my love.
