I'll still feel the burning of Failure long after I'm dead in the grave.
I know the stabs of Perfection which cause my will to decay.
And if the darkness of Fear will defeat my gain,then I may as well kill me while some hopes still remain.
Beneath my veneer of compassion cowers a suffering soul,and in my heart a burning anger slowly taking its toll.
I feel the pale chill of Pain as he suffocates the light,through the pieces of panic from losing my life.
Below the surface of my anger lies a festering fear,fed by the resonating hate from every word that I hear.
You bled me dry until I had nothing left,
and my nightmare finally ends as i feel the sweet Release of Death.

So much to read, so many emotions, I couldn't get enough of this one. Beautiful. I can definately feel the pain this person felt when he/she was about to commit suicide. Ryhme was definately good. On topic and not going over-board. I love this.

All these different emotions will live on after death, as they are your actions from being alive and therefore will live on in those that you have known. People will never forget yours.
