One Last Caress

Lift me�
You lift me up from the ground,
pull me up from the dirt, just to push me back down.
You smirk as I fall fast and drown.
Sinking into your sea of despair,
Gasping for breathes, a relief of air.

Again and again..
You have done it again.
Fooled me into trusting you like a friend.
Smothered me in your false truth.
Lies cascade and deprive me of youth.
Entangle me, as you weave your fa�ade.
My soul you continue to maraud.

Lead me�
Again you lead me into the dark.
Stray from light, a landscape so stark.
Again you lead me into the dark.

Leave me�
Again you leave me all alone, in the dark.
Encased forever within the dark.

Break me�
You break me down. �Break my soul,
Fragments remain, that once were my heart,
Break my spirit, and my will,
My hopes and dreams steadily are torn apart.

Torment me�
You torment me, you just will not leave me be,
Constantly instilling darkness and agony within me.
You fill me with fear, and leave me in agonizing pain.
Wounds fall upon my pale fragile body like a hurricane.

Drag me�
Down deeper you drag me, further beneath.
Dragged down, away from escape.
In the void, dark desolate place.

Dissever me�
Bit by bit. Erase my existence
Closer to my ending, Eternal absence.
Evaporating soul. �Body decaying.
In the unrelenting darkness I am fading.

End Me�
Your intentions so clear and concise.
You came for me, you came to take away my life.
Insidious in your ways. My life soon to conclude.
Long ago I have surrendered and subdued.
Seize your prize, finish what you have intended to.
Cease my life, and caress me sweet death,
So long I have waited to be free,
Sweetly caressed by death, end me�
