Why

Years pass by,
the arrival of truth,
happiness lost,
left in youth.

All I am,
shadows and dust,
standing alone,
I turn to rust.

Empty soul,
tearless eyes,
gazing at the heavens,
I see my disguise.

Horrific thoughts,
they fill my head,
I ask the Lord,
take me instead.

I write this to you,
as I want you to know,
my love is eternal,
now it's my time to go.

    I especially like "happiness lost, left in youth"
