Sickness

By RubyXero

Make this hurt
cease inside me.
Stop this death
from creeping in...
These points of pressure
push so forcefully.
Weak again,
to my knees i fall.

Crumbling and twisting
grasping at strings
to wrap my body
in toleration.
Glazed over
into the void i blur.
This hot torture
has consumed my entirety.

Spiraling down...
dizzy and drowning,
into the pits of hell i come.
Choking and purging
Bulging erruptions
on the mark
this body of disease
once again has begun.

Open my arms
and accept this pain
of suffering as yet unknown.
Taking from me...everything
as so often i have done.
welcome me into your palace
oh dark one,
for to you i shall come.
