sleep

To sleep the neverending sleep would be bliss
to see relatives whove gone before me that I miss
to loose the mortal bonds of earth and be truly free
that seems all that I have left that matters to me.

For I have lived and loved these many years
only to lose all that I truly love and care for has left me in tears
I feel shattered and betrayed by those I believed in and mattered.

Now I feel empty wasted and alone
I have no place I can call home
I have tried and failed time and time again
but out of all this I've yet to succeed once and truly feel alive and free.

So don't waste your tears on what you see
he's the only one who made his choice to be free
free of the pain of love for which there is no clear definition
for what one loves you see another hates
life for me is just one gigantic waste.
