On Borrowed Time

On Borrowed Time 
This clay body doesn’t even belong to me 
Days are passing me by 
No point on chasing after the wind 
No one cares about your achievements 
No one passed by my grave in the pouring rain 
Empty dreams 
Empty plots are inviting 
My days are numbered 
Burial gates are on standby 
Darkness can wait ( A little longer) 
What is there to hold on to? 
Guilt carries through my veins 
Too many mistakes 
Eyes shows loneliness under the darkest shades 
Sometimes stars fall from the sky 
Breathe my last breath tonight
