Abstinence
by Pray Silent· from This Was Not My War
Walking down this staircase without
banisters to hold myself onto. Every
step reminds me, things I've done in
the past.
I can't see the end, isn't there an end?
Taking one more step. I'm too young to
die. But what about all those who had no
choice and died because of my selfish
greed.
My abstinence. I've worked out for years,
will be paid. Admit the crime,
which I've done.
This darkness makes me feel as if
something were watching me now. I don't
feel free. Fear to walk deeper into, it's
my new imagination of hell. Try to stand
still but there is no way to. Abstinence
helps no more. Now comes the long awaited
confrontation.
My abstinence. I've worked out for years,
will be paid. Admit the crime. Which I've
done.
My abstinence brought me burning hell.
Try to stand still but there is no way to.
