I lie alone in a dark chamber,
pain coursing through my body.
A knife, like a white flag, sticks straight up,
using me as its base.
I am a boat, sailing away from life.
I surrender to death,
The poison that is pain powers through,
reminding me of all the pain I’ve caused.
I have not lived a good life.
I welcome Hell,
I fear Heaven and its bells
filled with expectations.
I wait, hoping Death will take the bait,
wanting each breath to be my last,
to feel the sweet kiss of Death.
Each jagged breath makes me more impatient.
Where is my release from this life?
When will Death, my rock, my lover, appear?
I want to escape this life,
I want to run away with Death!
And now, sailing across a crimson sea toward me,
my sweet Death approaches to take me on our next great adventure.
