Empty Scream

The scream is constant

Bouncing off the walls

Getting louder with each passing moment

I sit in my buried cell

Struggling to breathe

Clutching at my white chains

Wishing they would break

My heart races

Sweat beading down my neck

The shadow taunts me

Dangling the knife in front of me

Its screams loud as ever

I try to resist

I try, try, try

I try so hard

But I can't resist

I take the knife

And use my arm as my violin

Playing the song that is my death
