The Cries Of The Damned. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEG HIJK LLMK

A maelstrom rages on in the darkest recesses of my mindA
A gale of terror where demons congregate and engageB
The silhouettes writhe like serpents suffocating me wholeC
As mortal dread takes its toll in weatherly tearsD
-
A coffin lid may descend slow like the ulcer in my bellyE
Crushing my precious parts and fear begins to growF
The phantoms of my nightmares ghostly and heavyE
Torment my mind with blood curdling screams and mournful roarsG
-
The weight of existence heavy as a dead manH
Presses down upon me and my merciless fateI
My soul devoid of light or hope or peaceJ
Beckons me to surrender to eternal shutterK
-
In this my dearest hour I beg for merciful endL
A final deliverance from this wretched mortal trendL
A cessation of pain in my weary screams of lossM
And in my bed an eternal dreamless sleep it seems foreverK

Poet's note: While writing this, I was thinking of how heavy it is to live for pain is for the living. There are times when you feel so done with life and all you desire is to be compelled to death, a gentle resting place where our sorrows and pain decay!
