What do I write
To a tormented soul
To a struggling heart
That doesn't know
How do I self
Address
A letter of condemnation
Of this creation
Of my own doing
what wrong, I'm losing
It all
trying to snap-back straight
Too long, can't wait
Familiar rumblings
Veins quiver
My hand fevers
My heart jumps
And pumps
The need
To see
To be set free
But it has to be
Me
Who can't flee
So I've burned the key
And locked away my spirit
Because I don't want to hear it
Strangle me with truth
I soon deny
The fire
That burns
Inside
And I hide
Knowing we can't both survive
Me and I
So one must die
I've starved it, to end it
But it defends
My God why can't this
Just end
Have I committed too many
Sins
Sins,
That say pent up
Turning pit-bulls from pups
I've chosen
It seems
Though I scream
Mentally
I'm still there
Angry blood eyes glare
But now
Now I don't care
I'm done
