I am not dead


I am not dead, but not alive

Not awoken, But wish to be found

Lost in the abyss that is my mind

Lost as a soul that is blind

 

You despise me, but yet you are found

A demon awoken by hatred and sound

Yet I live, and I strive

Lost in the amnesia that is my life

 

Oh give me peace- put out

My misery, leave me to be

Swept by despair

A depression that kills through the night
