My Destination

A soul as black as a thousand midnights,
A heart bleeding crimson rain.
My mind reeling from the many demons.
Depression born from unspeakable pain.

Tears streaming down my face,
Hands clawing at my hair.
Eyes bulging; mind shattering,
For the pain I cannot bear.

Why me..why this?
Dragged into the black hole of my soul.
Desperation bubbling out,
Word vomit; left so cold.

Death, my ultimate destination.
Speeding along this highway to Hell.
Longing for that final release,
From this shattered, barren shell.
