I shut my eyes & the world drops dead.
'I shut my eyes & all the world drops dead' is from Plath's poem 'Mad girls love song'

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead
And my eyes remained closed
By the heavy weights
Of this world and it's sorrows
Pushing my eyes
Shut shut shut
And deeper into the depths
Dead dead dead
Forced shut and alone, cold
By the alien life
That continues to poison my air
The only choice
The only escape
Is the deepness of my soul
I need complete dedication
To be dead alone
Silent solitary
Lost within myself
To dedicate all I could have
For peace,
For silence,
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead
Stay closed
Baby keep them closed,
Never open them
Never be born
You'll be blinded by the harshness
Shut Shut Shut
Dead dead dead

'I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead'
