The Deadly Venom Sleep
The deadly venom
crept through my veins
The world started to drain away
I laid there going insane
Insane was my thought of the ones I would lose
Crying out for my loved ones
If I could chose
All the different things I would do
Sub coming to the poison in my body
feeling my body rotting from the inside
My mind couldn't understand I was dying
My soul inside crying
I closed my eyes
without saying goodbye
in hopes that my soul would rise
Returning to grace
Where I would gain
the acceptance of the one who called me sane
Drifting down into a deeper sleep
Where I heard him speak
Peace be still
At that moment I could feel
the peace and serenity most seeks
When I fell into the deadly venom sleep
