As I cloak myself with sadness I sacrifice my desperation Upon the altar of insanity This veil of tears comforts me Like a river washing Through the wounds Dazed and numb it leaves me behind But soon these feelings of anguish Enstrangle me anew "Nothing lasts forever" Mourning causes me to feel The feepening sorrow Spreading from within Forcing me to succumb to the pain That flows from the awful truth Tarnishing my emotions I feel the all embracing sore Respite fills up my torn heart Leaving me in the arms of solitude
