NIHIL

Tranquillity, thy name is loneliness
The silence has quelled my screams

I wish you could see this
Cause there's nothing to see
I look beyond the stars for God
But like here, there's nothing there
I am, but not really here
This isn't happening

If I was to speak the truth,
would you care, would you wither?
Wither like the withered flowers
Would you close your eyes and die
Die the death I long to know
Would a lie be the truth if you believed it?

I try to explain, but I don't understand
What my emotions relates
And why they keeps holding me
From giving my life to the eternal,
cold nothingness

Oh where have all the flowers flown?

There's nothing more, nothing left
Nothing more nothing less
But an empty, cold nothingness
Is this day or night, paradis or hell
I can't comprehend, lying rigid in bed
I wish you could see this
Cause there's nothing to see
Just a cold mist of nothingness
As far as you can feel
Nihil



Oh God! Why the angels fall first?

*hugs* from me too, this is kind of hard to respond too.. *sigh*
But I will respond to your quote, 'Why do the angels fall first!' I believe becuase people look on the angels as a threat, for they know they cannot compete - emotionally and spiritually.
Hope you are ok.. just working through the depression. Email if you need to talk ok?

Very well done. I like this line especially "Would a lie be the truth if you believed it?"
Enjoyed very much.
