Storm

Storm


   Black and gray mountains devour the sun
   churning and yearning to unleash their rage
   deafening roars bring forth their blinding fire
   with a volcanic burst of hail and rain
   as if they're striving for maximum pain
   deliver their deluge onto the land
   like a post-apocalyptic hellscape
   was always their diabolical plan
   that, along with the total destruction of man

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.
