Sweet Silence Poem by Devin Iven

Eyes closed, and veins open.
I stare into the darkness.
The deepness that consumes me.
My downfall, my purpose.

The war that rages in my mind.
The only casualty my hope.
I suffer endless, sorrow.
'Finally no tomorrow.'

With silence screaming so loudly.
I can not hear my god condemn me.
The chill settles in my bones.
Everyone truly dies alone.

The last breath lingers.
A whisper from the lips.
At last my soul escapes me.
Finally free.

Forget me……For I am forgotten.
