Rest

REST I am an empty vessel set adrift upon the sea lost amidst the wind swept waves where lightning and it's thunder rage surrounded by water irrate at me but, not a single drop to drink splashing and struggling against my fate I can not find air to breath and every time I try to find a way to take another breath it comes to mind this waisted time has made each day closer to death nothing gained from the day now gone nightmares chase me untill dawn I fear the day I fear the night I fear my death I feat my life it's gone so wrong it can't go right I've finally lost the will to fight for in the battle that never ends is a battle that no one wins My endless tunnal dosen't end in light but, the emotional darkness of a moonless night that spills from my heart engulfs my soul sufficates slowly my only hope the last resorce that helps me cope now I can say I gave my best so now I lay my head to rest to sleep to dream never to wake ... a welcome end to my last day.
