1:42 AM!

Mar 21, 2004 01:42

Words have no relevance to me.
I was born in the shadows,
And thus it’s where I remain.
I no not of life,
Nor emotion,
Pain or suffering.
I only know darkness.
Darkness that envelops me,
Continuously.
I fear no betrayal,
Nor lies,
Or even death.
I only fear.
Myself.
I lost myself,
In these ruins,
Ages ago.
Now I lay here,
With no pertinence.
I vowed never to leave,
Yet I am compelled too
Desert this fortress of impenetrability.
As I gaze at the glimmering light,
Reflecting off the fractured glass.
I kneel on the floor,
And I cradle your head in my arms.
Blood protrudes from you head,
It swathes my hands.
I need to escape.
My headraces,
And the light fades,
And once again I’m left in the darkness,
With your limp body in my hands.
The blood scuttles down my hands and legs.
An ice-cold shiver runs down my spine,
And I know the end is near.
I should have never left you,
Alone in the house,
And gone to search for our son.
The acid marks are evident on my visage,
As I lay u on the ground,
And as the echoing of the thunder in the distance,
Allows me to gaze into your eyes,
I repent all the choices I ever made.
Emotion,
Rekindles itself in my eyes,
As years obtrude from gaping sockets.
A surge of sorrow flows through me.
In that brief moment,
You fade away,
Into the darkness for eternity.
As I feel you depart,
I too begin to fade.
Yet the darkness,
Is no longer blinding,
I see my son,
And you by his side
Waiting for me.
I realize that
What I did that night,
You will never forgive me,
Yet I was punished,
And justice was served.
His body was found in the factory,
Where stab wounds stained his shirt.
You were found in my arms,
In the subway station,
There was a struggle,
My eyes were found a few feet away,
And your severed head was lying next to them.
