Ramblings From The Dark Side Poem by Noah Body

The sky is light yet I stand in the night

Tired, so tired

The darkness enfolds me, no light holds me

Sinking, the pit sucks at me

There is no bottom

Quicksand, stuck in quicksand

It's inside me, it doesn't abide me

Pain, it hurts
It comes in spurts

Rips at my soul, devours my heart
From the black I'll never be apart

Hate me, despise me
I'll never realize me

Lost in the pit
Just can't grab it

Help me, I'm drowning

Don't need help, need a bullet

There is no hope, I'm a goner
There's no one there, I'm a loner

Exquisite pain falls like rain

The darkness is the only constant
It's my only friend

It never ends, it goes on forever
It drags me to the land of wherever

It draws me nearer to the end
The knots in my stomach never unbend

Nothing but pain, my heart is torn
I wish that I had never been born

Tears run down in raging rivers
Hate those tears, my heart's in quivers

Stop it now, give me a bullet

Can't take anymore

Where do I turn
To stop the burn?

Get it out of me, get it away
I don't know what else to say

There is no one to help, no one to save
Black tracks on my soul are deeply paved

Alone and it hurts, agony so deep
Sanity I simply cannot keep

Need someone, someone so near
Need my wife, my only dear

It tears me apart, destroys my soul
I simply cannot play at this role

F**k it now, please let it end
To hell will it ever my soul send

To this do my thoughts now turn
Once again does my soul so burn

The pain in my heart does seethe
Please end it now while I still breathe
