Somber Sleep

I feel my body settling
My heart rate slows as it skips a beat
My eyelids are too heavy to open
As I drift into this somber sleep

One last breath to take
Before all the pain is gone
One last sigh to release
Before I move on

So many questions left unanswered
Now the answers will never be found
I won't be the one asking anymore
I won't even be around

I'll dream my last dream tonight
I'll feel my heart's final beat
No more heartache for me to endure
Now that I drift into this somber sleep

Don't try to wake me
My eyes are too heavy to lift
My heart is too heavy to carry
All the pain I've gained from this
