I lie here in the dark of night dreaming dark and grim dreams <br />I feel like throwing myself in to a river and letting the current take me beyond the realms of life <br />Let me flow in the eternal rest of death, the peaceful world of dreams <br />In to the gentle hum of nothing in the background, the quiet peace <br />Fall in to an eternal sleep of rest, where nobody can disturb you <br />I wake up staring up at my ceiling of my bedroom, wising it had all happened <br />It was a sign, I will go when I need to <br />You live only once <br />Live life to the full, live it the best you can<br /><br />Michael James Kennedy Findlay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-empty-soul/
