Warm Embrace

I can't escape the loneliness 
which haunts me deep inside
There's no one I can turn to 
and nowhere left to hide

For years I have been tortured by 
these thoughts within my head
My sanity slips far away 
with every tear I shed

Control beyond my hopefulness 
and peace so far from sight
I hate the waking thoughts I have 
and dread the dreams at night

Can Death secure my restlessness 
the grave relieve my fears
Or, must I continue hating life 
through my remaining years

Surely Death's a blessed end 
from all the pain I feel
The misery within my heart 
can never be concealed

I've reached the point of no return 
too great is all my pain
I pray for Death to claim my soul 
before I go insane
