No Prisoner Of Blood
Confined
Shadows cast from what we cannot see
Jagged rage suffocates my mind
I know this pain
I feel its sting every time I call upon the visions of my lonely youth
Such things can’t be wholly cured or forgotten
Buried in the darkness
To those days we are doomed and in light of this we strive to survive
Cast aside
Our vengeful achings within us
Disengage from our innate inclination
The dusk endures
We are the ending
Still it rises up my throat until I choke
The beast inside
It has to die
I will never satisfy its cries
I refuse to be a prisoner of blood
As a duty to myself
A ceaseless burden
I shoulder the weight alone
Much as you will too
