getting closer to god

getting closer to god


so this is death
this is what it feels like being dead
growing cold never growing old
the silence all around
the cold cold ground
the icy grip on your shoulder
reapers cold smile
grinning back at you from the mirror
year after year
so this is death
this must be what it feels like
being dead
nobody to talk to nobody to listen to
nobody to hear you
no loves gentle embrace
no life's inspiring spark
so this is death
this must be what it feels like
to be dead
staring with unseeing eyes
mourners shuffling past
whispering to
unhearing ears
no tears
so this is death
this is what I have to look forward to
in a few short years
I fight with all that's in me
fight to hold onto the light
fight to hold onto life
so this is death
this is what it feels like being dead
this is what it feels like
trapped in my own head
praying
getting closer to god
waiting just waiting
to be dead

dark 2010

Dark indeed, but with a compelling quality to it.
