Belay My Judgement

It seems a lifetime since

Feeling alive, like once before

Determining I will forever suffer

Condemned to walk the earth

Devoid of that which matters most

Undeserving of the warmth of another

Release me now

Cannot relive this nightmare

Free me of this hell

Believe me now

Will not conform to evil

Belay my torment

Past indiscretions have unleashed

Affliction bearing down

Greatly deafened any sense of comfort

As time progresses

The terms of struggle have been accepted

Reversed the remnants of my invocations

Let Them go. Be no more.

Moving onward

Leaving the past to memory

With open arms

I hold on to the moment

Building something to live for

May it not be in vain
