Remains scattered on the floor

Battered, tattered, broken, sore

Content to sacrifice

Blinded by the illusion for more

Crippled and weak, stumble on

Sacrifice more until gone

In pieces, slowly recover

Another picture redrawn

Pieced together with weak glue

Always need to begin anew

Such a tiresome thing

When no one is with you

Watch the color fade

Body and mind thoroughly flayed

So slowly dying

They watch and laugh instead of aid

The pain twists the mind

No more kindness or love to find

A pointless journey

In loneliness, confined

No longer a sacrifice

No longer an outcast

Why?

Long ago, everything died
