Ghost Unknown

Night is falling.

I'm so far from home.

Running so fast.

Breathing so hard.

Panic sets in.

A knowledge so sacred.

So wanted.

So desired.

To keep a secret so divine...

And to be killed for forever withholding.

A choice of life or death.

A choice that constitutes the need for thought.

The want of strength.

The rush of the fight.

Blood running so cold through these black veins.

The paleness of the one long dead.

Haunting from a death so painful.

Such torturous agony.

Screams of tainted innocence.

Tears of manipulated trust.

A betrayal so deep and nefarious.

There is no return from the depths of my hell.

Cursed to relive this moment... this death over and over.

Dying slowly.

Poisoned by the very hands that I helped reach out.

Long term decaying.

Rusting from the inside out.

No diagnosis... no cure.

All good deeds done for nothing.

All rights have been wronged.

I was violated.

Ripped and torn.

Bruised and battered.

Once a life lived so pure.

Now so dark.

I am alone... always alone.

Wandering the endless pits with no one to pull me out.

The burning blisters exist as the fire melted the skin from my bones.

My living becomes my death.

My light becomes my darkness.

The river is damned.

The inner crimson no longer flows.
