I'm resting in peace in a coffin I made
I'm free of my sins, 'cause for them I have paid
I dwell in a place parallel to the grave
Behind the dark walls where my soul can be saved
My slumber is deeper than the dreams that I've had
Just to be released from the world, I am glad
My journey on earth has been done for some days
Too late for a hug, and it's too late to pray
The shadows have closed in and seeped in my soul
Freed from the casket of my corpse and it's ghouls
I'm free in a world that some call a prison
The realm I am in now knows not the living
My life was a tormented dream that I lived
Here I cannot fathom why mortals would grieve
My fear of death has been conquered and won
For it was a friend for who's gift I had longed

i love your poetry, but i think you should try writing one that doesnt ryhm,,, it gives you more freedom to get to the deep down emotions...
You think? I will try. I've not really been a fan of poems that don't rhym, but I will try...
p.s Thanks for the muse :-)
