Sacrifice

I want to give up
To just let go.
To submerge myself
Drift to sleep.
Close my eyes
and never wake up.

I want to die
To say goodbye
To bid adeau
heh
to become le poo.

I don't want pleasure
I don't want pain.
I don't want ice cream
Or walks in the park.
I don't want the sun
The rain
The moon
The stars.
I don't want the looks of smiling faces.
I don't want the looks of approval from all.
I don't want the joy of winning a race.
I don't want the sound of laughter of friends.

I don't care about the little puppy who lost its way home.
I don't care about a flower, just bursting into bloom.
I don't care about the world's ozone problems
Or about the animals that suffer from the humans.
I don't care about the possibility of aliens
Or my once childish quest to find them.

I give up smiling
I give up laughing
I give up love
I give up friendship
I give up life itself.

I give up the good and the bad.
All I want now, is piece of mind.
To surrendur my life
My soul
It would be worth the piece of mind
That I so desperately reach for.
