It’s The Death Of Me
By Richard Maxfield
4-13-2000

Silence hush deafening
Thoughts racing to and fro
Alone in the darkness
What direction do I go

Unbearable pain of loneness
Hearts curdling scream
Some one awaken me
From the hellish dream

Clock slowly ticks
Hours seem as days
Yesterdays memories
Through my mind plays

Lonely wind howls
Teardrops ever flow
If this is my further
I don’t want to know

Cry out in prayer
Oh God don’t let it be
If this is all true
Please God come take me

In the swirling wind
The old house groan
As if it now knows
It’s a house not a home

Curled up on the floor
Knees in my chest
Holding my ring
Longing for rest

I close my eyes
A stark picture I see
You in his arms
It’s the death of me
