I Will Leave You All Behind
They brought me to this spacy place.
I am dragged through spells of horror.
With intermittent drips of emotion.
In this chilling arena.
Where I am forced to watch the others on their rotting trail.
I hope to leave them all behind.
Sacrificing nothing but my guilt and tears.
I am sorry I refused to share my hope with everyone.
But you are all too ravenous.
And I must protect my normalcy.
Or else I am just like all of you.
So I zip up.
And walk back through the waiting room.
Hoping someone is waiting for me.
