My Plea

Come swiftly sweet eternal sleep
Put me out of my misery
Let me rest my eyes one last time
To dream forevermore

Never to awake and look
by my side and see that love
is gone from me, let me be
in my bed of sorrows

I wish to sigh my last waking
breath and to slip into the
peaceful silence, suspended
in death's cold embrace

Dark one, and pull me closely to
you and grant me my wish
of ended suffering while
wrapping me in your arms

Drag me under and silence
my heart's crys of pain
with a kiss from the malicious
lips of dear expiration

Here my plea through
my misery, end my affliction
and surround me in the
air and lull of eradication
