Dying Before Death

Vile, tormented soul
You've come to haunt me again
Burning at me from the core

Futile plan of escape
Leading to nowhere
As I search for Nirvana

Restless heart can't breathe
I'm suffocating silently
Forlorn in the wilderness

Slow, wrenching death
Not bearing the process
Wishing for the end

Numb in every spot
Apathetic to all around
As I wait to waste away
