Black

(black)
eaten whole by the night of despair
i'm closing myself down while the world sings itself to sleep
and is it ever going to happen to me?
will i ever try
will i ever?
somedays it grows strong
others it loses grip to what i think is sanity
wish this terminal anguish would just release the imperious hold
skin
bone
gelatine
eating away inside of me
take it all away
bury me in a plain box of hate
and kiss the chilled lips
