It is dark,
And it is cold.
Where are you now?
I'm all alone.
Please do not leave me
Here broken and bound.
The pain goes on endlessly,
And I cry my hurt out loud.
My tears run dry, and my defenses collapse
As even more pain I endure.
I struggle hard and attempt I shall
To catch freedom once more.
I pull steadily harder at my bonds,
And gain nothing in the end.
I focus all of my inner strength,
Feel my bones begin to bend.
The hurt sears through my every nerve,
I see in shades of gray.
I think for once it's good like this.
I can't feel myself anyway.
More pain courses through me,
As the knife again swings.
My muscles strain from disuse,
My hair is ragged string.
Lying here in the wet,
I sob and howl my pain.
The torment goes on for ever,
As they watch on in disdain.
If I could slit my throat I would,
To get away from this.
This world means nothing more to me,
It's empty, an abyss.
I feel the burning sting once more,
And I scream my throat to hell.
I force myself to see it through,
What more comes I cannot tell.
The harsh whispers in my ear,
Of threats of impending death.
I want so much to bring it all,
Cut my last string from the shelf.
Where are you, Buzz? To rescue me?
I need your help, please.
Otherwise I'll die here of anguish,
Nevermore will you see me.
