Beyond The Flesh

Paralyzed  as  my  life  slips  away

I＇m  mortified  by  my  disease

Terrified  of  my  mortality

But  doomed  to  find  what  lies  beyond

My  conscience  reawakens

As  I  she＇d  my  mortal  shell

Drifting  in  the  memories

Of  a  once  embodied  life

Lost  beyond  the  carnal  realm

Absorbed  in  desolation

Trapped  within  this  labyrinth

Of  faded  recollection

Deceased  and  yet  my  mind  remains

Endless  mental  excruciation

Tormented  thorough  memory

No  life  beyond  the  flesh

My  body  rotting  in  the  grave

Its  vital  essence  gone

My  spirit  writhes  in  nothingness

Serenity  has  been  denied  me

Afterlife  of  suffering

In  immortal  unconsciousness

I＇m  agonised  eternally

By  absence  of  flesh

Deceased  and  yet  my  mind  remains

Endless  mental  excruciation

Tormented  thorough  memory

Why  can＇t  I  rest  in  peace?

Wallowing  in  empty  pain

I＇m  plagued  with  lust  to  live  again

Damned  to  spent  eternity

In  disembodied  misery

Imprisoned  in  this  solitary  hell

Anguished  by  visions  of  life

In  mourning  of  my  tortured  destiny

Tantalized  forevermore
