Sacrifice
Thoughts running rampant
All control undone.
Tears streaming down my face
The emotions have won
§§§
Try to console myself
My emotions prevail
All efforts stagnate
And all attempts fail
§§§
A promise made in darkness
"I won't be gone for long."
All energy directed
To keep the mask looking strong
§§§
Sacrifice is the escape
"Neither can live while the other survives"
No one thought he would go that far
But for him
It wasn't far at all
