I am afraid of what I want. The longing for eternal slumber only grows But I don’t have the courage to ravage the deepest layers of myself Or the drive to find the most lethal combination of chemicals. I am afraid of the consequences that would follow my failed efforts. I can’t face anyone now as it is So I know I couldn’t bear the damp, questioned looks I’d recieve in the bed of a frigid, steril room.

Nameless and Dateless
I am afraid of what I want. The longing for eternal slumber only grows But I don’t have the courage to ravage the deepest layers of myself Or the drive to find the most lethal combination of chemicals. I am afraid of the consequences that would follow my failed efforts. I can’t face anyone now as it is So I know I couldn’t bear the damp, questioned looks I’d recieve in the bed of a frigid, steril room.
