Peace and pain

Help; hark, hear the words I say.
I shaln't come out another day.
Peace so sweet, harmony kind.
Forever tranquility I know I shall find.
The petal of a daisy, flower.
So many things won't matter; money or power.
Stabbing deep to emotions core.
Agony will soon be no more.
Will no longer feel the wake of dawn,
Nor shall I feel my heart be torn.
The reason that I take it so;
Is because how I feel, It kills me so.
