Final Words (Goodnight, Farewell)

My heart's last breath has been
written on this paper. Tonight, becomes
my final, broken in tears, I face the
darkness alone with fear of knowing; I
can never return. I scream one last time,
goodbye.

The rain falling outside my window, so
pure and warming. The years of tears I so
long holded inside, fall for me. Walking the
departing road alone, every demon I stood
haunted by, laughs at my every footstep, I take
closer.

I look at my hands, and see the blood I lossed,
thinking, everything that troubled me was washed
away. Every tormented day I survived, to see the
sun again, has become a challenge, I fallen to see
forever without battle. Every moment's spent, the
sands of time have drifted away, no life in my garden;
I bow my head and mourn for salvation, I could never earn.

Softly I run my fingers over memories captured,
and boxed up. Shadowing through my pain,
a smile. All the things I had so little of,
but never saw how much it gave to me. Lost forever in
the ocean's bottom, my world shatters, this love
I was told I had; fades to ash within' the arms
of this dying fool tonight.

My ears filled with the bells
singing, my song of silence, soothing what's
left to piece; of my heart.
Drowning inside, these holes within my soul,
I lay to rest finally, hopefully, always, with
this one giver of my deceit.

Now I've fallen to my fire's burning core,
I free myself to darkness above.
Never again, will my failure, haunt those
I care for. Goodnight, farewell.
