Drifting Away

Seeping into the shadows,
The love of death, the hate of life,
Annihilation....blackness, the perfect void,
Shall my soul sleep with those who've perished.

Yearning for that long sleep,
The pain felt, echoing through my body,
Blades of agony, obliterating my existence,
Souls of those who roam the land,
Haunting that of my own essence,
Why can't they see what I have become.

I've lived again and again,
But now I am no more,
She cannot help me once I have fallen,
Fallen out of this cold world,
Out of this prison of lies,
The burden of these deeds,
Making me faulter in my steps.

On and on I roam, through the darkness,
I once heard her voice, turning my head back,
Seeing my life flash before my eyes,
Looking into my own fate.

Searching, my body heavy,
The last steps of the living,
Closing my eyes, I feel satisfied,
Because now, that I am gone,
You can move on with your life,
Without my cursed being beside you,
But, no matter how long I shall take my leave,
Just remember the thing that I hold dear to me,
You.
