Traitor

by F.A. - Leo

I cranked up the music so I wouldn't hear
I shut my eyes so I wouldn't see
I gripped the knife so I wouldn't fear
I dreamt up a world so I would be

The fake noise clouding my mind
Swirling about like a chaotic mist
Shrouding me so you wouldn't find
The jagged chains hanging from my wrists

I stood before the grim reaper
He pointed his long bony finger
Unworthy! was all he said
I gripped the knife tighter and I bled

I stood before my reflection
Awaiting for my own condemnation
Traitor! was all I said
I embraced oblivion and I no longer bled
