Poet's Hysteria

Mist in my eyes - Tears on my pillow.
Heart sunk low - Like the weeping willow.~
Voices screamed inside my head.
'Silly fool, you're better off dead'.~
'He didn't love you, he didn't care'.
I learned to late that life's not fair.~

You left my side, left me here to die.
My heart was blackened - I began to cry.~
Words were said - They broke my heart.
What had I done to tear us apart?~
My love was gone, went out the door.
It left with you to be seen no more.~
Take this soul far away from me.
Take this life and set me free.~
My world is shattered, the finale is near.

Alone with out you - Time to face my fear.~
The deed is done, Death's around the bend.
Nothing in this world for me but...

THE END.~
