Real Wish

A sudden sadness hits my thoughts...
Darkness; evil insight, my eyes won't shut.
Eerie silence; teary vision, my hands search for a comforting touch.
Lonely feeling; depressing news, my legs gradually grow numb.

A sudden urge to scream hits my throat...
Soft gurgle; endless pain, my voice has been stolen.
Clenched teeth; increasing pressure, my tongue feels so swollen.
Suffocating; gasping for air, my body is officially broken.

A sudden moment I feel so free...
Ascending sensation; sunlight takes over, my soul is finally at peace.
Pearly gates; clouds as steps, my heart feels so complete.
Happy face; always watching over, I have admitted defeat.
