An old dark poem I wrote. Any comments?

This endless road twists in my mind in ways unknown.


I look ahead and things stand still,


I missed my surroundings.


Lost in a shadow that darkens my soul;


Unmoving.


I crack my bones to get a sweet taste of the edge of the Earth;


Peace engulfs me,


swallows me whole.


My head makes a 360 degree turn,


held in place by the Invisible Hands.


Glued where I had begun.


The wretched fumes seeping through the air vents.


The dead waking about.


Oblivious;


seeing the image of this car speeding towards them;


image burned into their memory.


The hed on collision is inevitable;


time is the enemy.


Each blink of my heavy eyes erase the seconds of my life.


Jagged pieces of metal race towards me,


taunting.


Each and every time I take a small drop of hope and place it on my tongue.


I feel its effects immediately as my mind is filled with lies.


Images of Heaven that dance before me,


yet disappears as tears flood my eyes.


The shadow again scratches my eyes.


I send hopeful messages through the air that the Ignorant Man will


crush my car;


transforming into a mesh of mangled metal.


Whether each vertebrae in my neck snapssimultaneouslyy,


or I am wounded for the dead to drink my blood.


It makes no difference to me,


to him,


to her,


to anyone.


Either outcome fulfills my longing to


Exit Earth's doors.


And allow my mind to take me


Where it envies.


No God will love me,


No Jesus will heal.


My bleeding soul is already dead.


My body just needs to catch up.


Evil is knocking.


I amtrudgingg slowly to my door,


reaching for the burning knob,


breaking my wrists to turn it......
