May You Find Peace Tonight

by Ali   Sep 1, 2006


Sometimes you ask yourself
Why the lights have grown dim
Why all thoughts and feelings
Are always dark and grim

The many memories
That twist within your mind
Do nothing but hurt you
And slow down endless time

Your lost in a labyrinth
Of raging storms and madness
Only tears from the eyes
Refresh your day's sadness

All your masks and make up
Hide your sickening shame
With silver blades and scars
Thinking you are to blame

In your silent reverie
You dream of what it'd be like
To rest all through the night
Resulting a final strike

To feel safe and weightless
In the clutch of sweet bliss
That will take you far away
Is your secret wish

In the arms of an angel
That can take away your fears
Is what you always dream of
With smiles and tears

Your wish upon a star
Is a wish to see true light
Your angel will come soon...
May you find peace tonight
