Murdered

My thoughts
Chase away my dreams
Now turned to nightmares
Full of screams

When will my life
Come to an end?
Will I be the one to stop it?
Is this all just pretend?

He comes from the shadows
Makes no noise
I let him get to me
I am overjoyed

Will he do 
What I cannot?
End my life
Let my body rot?

My smile is full
His hands do not waver
I say a silent goodbye
He is my death-filled
Life saver
