Death's Sweet Embrace
May 14, 2018
The sweet embrace of death
That is all I desire
Wishing for the final breath
To choke my internal fire
Long have I fought
Ridding myself of the Villain, so I thought
Years struggling to no avail
Subconsciously expecting to fail
What causes this grief?
Tis the stealing of my soul
Caused by a troublesome thief
Leaving an empty hole
To be rid of my eternal strife
Cannot be achieved by life
Alas death is the only escape for me
To be rid of my foe, poetry
