My Story

As I lay me down to sleep, I start to sink and sink and sink and sink. My body sinks, but my mind reminds. I hope it doesn't lead me astray. My inner shadow sees it go. It seeps through my bed deep into the ground. Dirt and grime, and I can't make a sound. Further it goes away from my soul. Through the coffins of the dead. Where I would lay if I could just rest. But it keeps traveling on. I try clinging to pine box handles, be my own pallbearer, but I can't move. It just float on. Deeper deeper through the layers. Lips can't even move so no need for prayers. To Hell I go and back again. Screams of jealousy pass my ears as I depart. The devil knows he can't keep my heart. I want to rest but find no end. Up and up and up again. Through the bodies of those I've lost. Oh how I want to be that one at rest. But on again I float through our earth. Back to my room all over again. Just to start it all again. And no don't think of it as rebirth. You don't want to be me, so don't even try. Just cover your ears as I scream and cry. Leave me be to dwell in my fruitless journeys. Over and over again as Nelly said. Never to end unless I'm dead. Kill me now i'll hand you the gun. No, please don't turn away and run. I'd chase you down, but I can't move. Trapped again in an abyss. Yes hold my hand and give me a kiss. Drink the vile by my side. Star-crossed is what we're meant to be. You were made just to lie and die with me. Give up your soul to float with me. Baucis and Philemon meant to be. Oak and Linden us and we. Hush and keep your arms wide open as I lie in you. My body placed in yours. Keep me still once and for all. Now u can float and feel the fall. But I'll be with you, don't you worry. Just move on and continue my story.
