Can fire freeze me?
Earth release me?
Breathe the water...
And choke the air...

So begins the end...

Barely conscious...
Heart is beating...
I'm still breathing...
But, in my mind...

My breath goes numb...
My eyes grow cold
The fear I hold...
Quite far from gone...

Voices silent...
My arms feel weak...
I dare not speak...
Love keeps me strong...

Longing burden...
To quench my rage...
A living cage...
I'm bound no more...

Death awakens...
My pain to ease...
My sweet release...
Is said and done...

((Far from done? I'd like to think so... Feedback?))

Imagine having nothing to live for...
Simply passing the days as if they were nothing...
No ambition, no reason for being alive save for fear of death...
Then, as if from heaven, a reason is born, and it becomes a single living goal...
Something to strive for, try and reach with all of your heart and soul...
Enough to leave behind anything you may have already grown accustom to...
Then, the reason is gone...
Snatched away...
A peice of your soul, your being, is ripped out and cast aside...
All the work, the sweat, the tears, gone...
And now your in the same pit you were before you were granted hope...
But now, you have a taste of paradise...
Living a mundane life isn't good enough any more...
It cant be...
You realize all the time you've wasted...
The things you've lost...
And the memories haunt you...
Even in your dreams...
