Sacrifice (by TheSecret)

As I stare at the blood stained surface,

It feels so nice, it feels so calm.

A sense of safety, a pleasurable wrong.

Nothing as it seems.

Shatter my heart, shatter my dreams, I stare into their lifeless eyes and hear their silent screams.

The fires of anger, the fires of hate, washing away their pain.

The seconds we live, the moment we die,

The things that we see, the years that we cry.

Nothings as it seems.

I shut the lights out and shut myself in,

The blade growing closer, closer to skin.

Nothing as it seems.

I see my carpet, my blood stained floor.

A victim of life, a child of pain, a bloodied corpse, slain.

I hunger no more for sanity in life, I hunger no more for sacrifice.
