Injustice

A pitiable life form
Wasted breath
Psychotic, brain-dead mind
Dilapidated, shadow of a heart
Tortured soul

Volcanic emotion erupting
Havoc wreaking pain destroying the fast fading remains of a living corpse
Malicious, bloodied tears escaping flawed resistance
Fiery imperceptible ashen rain
Melting flesh and smouldering bone
Liberating wicked predators frantically ripping at an already decrepit,
Skeletal carcass in desperate escape

Involuntary self annihilation
Pathetic attempt to cease torturous pain
Agonizing pleas falling on deaf ears

Abandoned


Cloaked death approaching scarcely
