Suffering

I lie amongst the rats all curled up
Crying
Tears of anger, helplessness and pain

I lie in wait 
The worst is yet to come
I shake uncontrollably

I am helped up, only to be pushed back down
There are eyes all around me, watching me
Jeering and laughing

I am kicked and beaten
The pain is unbearable
Please, help me

I feel a chain across my back
Once, twice, three times
My piercing scream echoes off the walls

Daggers are plunged into me
Ripping my flesh out
Tearing me apart

My bitter tears wash down my blood smeared cheeks
Now I am alone
Slowly bleeding to death

I am weak, barely conscious
All I can do is pray
Pray, the end is near
