A gloomy morning

"Clouds not moving, winds not stirring
Heart's beating tiredly, eyes not opening
Breathing ever painfully, face's moistening
Soul's in melancholy, when's light coming?

Heavens afar, hell's coming
The gods are angry; ghosts are dancing
The angels frowning; devils rejoicing
Universe's expanding, stars are dying
Planets spinning, humans wondering
Soul's waning, pains unceasing

Clouds are flying, winds are fierce
Heart's frightened, eyes wondering
Breathing's slowing, face's crinkled
Soul's dying, darkness shrouding

Heavens falling, hell's welcoming
The gods are grinning; ghosts laughing
The angels leaving; devils preparing
Universe so great, stars minute
Planets revolving, humans thinking
Soul's withered, pains overwhelming

For my love my hands outstretched
Accepted the heart rejoice
Rejected the heart shall die
Giving love, yet delivering pain
Trusting, yet untrusted
Advices aplenty, none heeded
Confidence soared, disaster came
Regrets too late, pain triumphs

Soul's in sorrow, sorrow in silence
Silence's killing, killed without mercy
Mercy is lost, loss is my fate
Fate unforgiving, unforgiven shall be my undoing

Punished, I am crying
Tormented, I am praying
Depressed, I am asking
Saddened, I am dying

Crying not for self, praying not for self
Asking not for self, dying not for self
To God I shall cry, To God I shall pray
To God, I shall ask, To God, to take my life

For her wounds, I cried
For her hurts, I prayed
For her past, I asked for mercy
For her trust, death shall prove

Unworthy, asking no more
Unintelligent, to do no more
Unwise, hurt was done
Untrusted, as I deserved
Unmerciful, shall be her wrath
Unforgiven, shall be my fate

Knees in the earth, hands clasped
Eyes in the skies, breathing ceased
Praying for my love, I asked for His anger
To comfort her mourning soul, and to see her no more
That may she be redeemed, shall I be content
That she may see her light once again
Darkness shall be my price"
