Tick and tock, the clock went on.
My heart unlocked what felt so wrong.
A beat arrives inside my chest.
Though not alive, it ceased to rest.

Confusion spills within my own.
A bitter chill says I'm alone.
Surrounded by my skin and weight,
I wonder why this pain's so great.

A single soul. I lay without
The burning coal that killed the doubt.
And even though my words are said,
This life is faux, my mind is dead.

Minutes feel like years,
hours close to decades.
I'm lying in bed
while my mind tries to fade.

A heart tends to feel
what words can't convey.
I am desperately fighting
to take myself away.

A soul that is heavy
with a body close to hollow.
I am fighting for sleep,
but my mind will not follow.

The advice you want to give,
I simply won't demand.
All I seem to wish for
is a heart that can withstand.

It is time for me to go.
For soon, I will see dawn.
I know that it is coming,
I know I will move on.

I thank you for your time,
I shouldn't keep you taken.
The only thing I ask
will be something left unspoken.
