The blood pumping through my veins
Why won't it stop?
The sound thumping in my ears
Please make it stop
The warmth blossoms from my skin
I wish for cold
My skin is flush with red heat
Please make it cold
My breath moves like winter wind
Please make it still
Back and forth through winter caves
It must be still
Senses flow through to my brain
Just cut them off
All felt before nothings changed
Must switch them off
This life is a dream not real
I must wake up
All seen and felt but not lived
I will get up
I long for that endless black
No more false light
I yearn for that ceaseless cold
No more false heat
No more boredom, no more pain
An end to me
No more feeling, no more brain
Please finish me
