The eternal night
darkens yet again..
as I sink deeper..
in torrents of pain..
my esteem shattered
and pride slain..
The grue lingers..
and runs through me..
over and over again
every moment turns ugly
disastrously insane..
and insanity is redefined..
every now and again..
The disease has seeped,
deep withing me..
despair has gripped..
every inch of me..
taking me to new lows
and I can't fight it..
despite all my vows..
In the eyes of death,
my tired soul now stares...
and for the heaven-bound journey
it gradually prepares..
and just before I drift
into the welcoming oblivion
I find myself hit..
with a vivid realization..
that I, and only I, was responsible
for my own damnation...
