Only If

by Lewis   Nov 2, 2005


Only if I can lay myself
to sleep, my pain will be gone.
Pain that kills me
slowly, but effectively, piece
by piece. I will die.

Only if I can lay myself
to sleep, my emotions will
be empty. Feeling no hate,
anger, happiness, and sadness,
I lay. I will die.

Only if I can lay myself
to sleep, the lives of others
will be better. Not having
to deal with me, not being
remembered. I will die.

Only if I can lay myself
to sleep, liveliness will
sprout once more. From
being dormant to being
active, bringing life. I will die.

Only if I can lay myself
to sleep, how lighter a
person will be. Not having
to carry my feelings and
thoughts, more happier. I will die.
