Waiting for the waves to stop roaring

Only death brought peace

The storm is over

So is life

No feeling

No pain

Numb

No flesh

Just bone

Everything is gone

Except for the silence, peace brings

Waves now calm

Pain free

Everything at ease

Accepting what is

Chasing death

Existence cease

Rest easy

To the feelings that kept raging inside

Is this true freedom or did the storm finally took over the soul?

Fully consumed by darkness maybe

No light

And no sign of life

Dark and hollow

Empty

Atrophy

Tireless

Heartless
