Eternal Slumber

The girl you once knew
Has long died

I am nothing but a shell
Of who I once was before

Pain that engulfs me
Leads me deeper into my misery

My only deliverance is the nights
The nights where the pain seems to disappear

But the mornings bring heartache
Something I can't seem to bear any longer

Dreams of suicide
For a life not worth living

Sometimes my only solace in this wretched life is
Thinking of entering my eternal slumber.
