Untitled

Lonely surrounds me,

Shadows around me,

Crows are cheering,

But no one is there,

Mindless wonder of things in the past, 

If I could die would it be worth it,

To just slip off the edge of this pitiful place,

Into a sleep of mangled embrace,

If seeing is believing,

Then my sight has failed me,

Because I no longer see the good in life,

And if this life has nothing left for me, 

Then I wish to no longer be haunted by it,

So if you please just leave me be!
