Left Alone

Your life may have ended  
But my nightmares did not  
You abandoned me here  
To fight them off alone  
Lucky you get to rest  
Whilst i cry in the battle  
Of the night  
 
The days are blended  
Tightening the knot  
Of a rope so drear  
The misery has grown  
As the grief will infest  
Into the shackle  
I can't fight  
 
Without you, I've surrendered  
To the dreams of distraught  
Never a slumber without a tear  
Is this Gods way to make me atone  
For being ungrateful to what I had been blessed?  
In essence handing the apple  
For me to bite

Author's Note
I'm not religious to know if the ending was enough of an analogy
