Poetry: Dark poems

Sometimes I wish that I could die!
Just curl up and let life stop.
and all its troubles pass me by.

No longer trying to find my way,
through the haze of daily life.
That surrounds me like an oppressive fog.

I dream how simple it would be.
To fall into eternal sleep.
Become a fading memory.

But what if death is not the end?
And life here after is more hectic still.
The irony would so cruel.

So I will wait till my time comes.
And hope some answers I will find.
To lighten up the darkness.

    I have shaded the windows to my soul
    with the darkest death of night
    so that you can not peer inside
    and see my raw, blood

    By the Wayside



    When days have turned to darkness
    And nothing dries my tears
    Will I slip into madness?
    Will no one calm my fears?
