    Lay Me To Rest

    I'm tired now, I wish that I could rest
    And not wake with ciggerets and stale liquor on my breath
    I'm weary of thoughts that leave my mind intwined in a mess
    And I'm tired of fearing madness will be my death

    I'm so tired now, and most I miss the dreams
    Most nights bring darkness, worse than the nightmares seem
    I miss the world where it was somewhate serene
    Oh, I miss those nights when I could dream

    I ache so much, it feels my bones should break
    But there's so much left to do, and much more at stake
    Push forward now, whatever it might take
    All I feel is pain, no love, no hate

    I'm so tired now, just let me lay here for a bit
    So many promises I wish I could forget
    I've failed them all and the thoughts make me sick
    And my time keeps moving but I no longer here it tick

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
