The End

By Eladrim

Long road
End at last
Where all the things I've sown
Will finally return
And the sweet rest
I've dreamed of
Finds me ready.
Harsh nights
Cold rain
Waiting for a salvation
That never came
I hate how I love the scars
And the crimson flesh
I hate how I love the polluted air
Flowing with every breath
I hate how I love this glass
Filled by lies
I hate how I love the mask
That helps me hide
