Emotionless eyes stare back at me

Flecks of red surround the pupil, fully dilated

A cold chill runs up my spine

Hands and knees tremble with remorse

How could it come down to this?

What I thought I’d never become, I am now

Try to find a way out

A new way to destroy and destruct

This body and mind that I do not want anymore

But my soul haunts me

Every waking hour, minute, second

For what I have done and what I failed to do…
