Death Will Soon Come Knocking

And so you let the emptiness glide upon you,
And under you.
Part of who you are and always will be.
Lost and alone.
The darkness your only friend.
Reaching a hand out to look for something,
A grip to cling to in the black of night,
When nightmares sink their claws into your mind.
Falling.
Fading into the oblivion beyond you,
Desperately searching for salvation,
A friend,
A lover,
Someone to forgive you,
And a way to atone for your sins.
Lost in it all.
Nothingness surrounds you,
The fall was just too far.
Broken on the ground with no one to see you,
Alone.
As you always have been.
The mistakes you made,
The people you hurt,
Everything you failed to realise,
And failed to be
Haunts you now.
So lost in what you always were…
A single desperate mistake, waiting to be undone.
