Circumstances,

darkened

by the hopeless hope

I had regarding you,

blurs my existence

erasing me

 


Poison

flowing

from you stinging

my back with your knife,

gushes into my soul

turning my blood black

terminating me

 


You

gave me circumstances,

fed me poison,

changing my living status

entirely.

Yet You

Never

Changed

Yourself
