I remain here

waiting for this to end

racing my thoughts

trailing in my defense

why so cold

inside this emptiness

burning eyes shoot through me

I cross the desert

in my soul

those who see me

will one day eat me whole

bloody my dignity

I am writing my own will

as I envision my fall

swallowed by guilt

I'm enslaved here

reliving all of this

how can this be...

how can this be happening

I felt them all

poking at my flesh

stealing my life blood

draining off my essence

I scan the depths of my mind

for a savior

realizing I've been here

many times before

in my dread

those who beat me

I shall settle the score

embrace what is my

only true reward

let the lights dim

I am a prisoner to all of this

past, present and future

it's no illusion

I'm in chains here

this can't be what it seems

I'm bearing witness to my own

final passing

close my eyes

my flesh's on fire

singed by the gods

they're in my bones

severed my throat

gauged out my eyes

I am paralyzed

Numb as I am now

I sense they're all

proud of what they've done to me

unworthy martyr

now thoroughly disposed

and diseased

I shall never rest in peace
