Into The Night - Poem by C.R. Ebowski

There are choices I have made
And consequences that must be paid
There are mistakes that condemn me
From which I will never be free

So I’ll take this life
Smother it with the light
Never having a place to sleep
I’ll hide in the shadows of the night

There are moments that I regret
Memories that I could never forget
There are reflections that haunt me
From which I will never be able to flee

So I’ll take this life
Spend it down on my knees
Begging for forgiveness
Deaf ears hearing my pleas

There is a place I have gone
A street where death lives on
There will never be a release
I know I will never have peace

So I’ll take this life
And the burdens I bare
Reliving the pain
Of death’s despair
