In The Silence
In the silence of this darkened roon
I sit and cry,
tears fall like icicles
stabbing my naked skin,
and I can barely sigh.

I build a chain.
A chain  of lies.
A chain of misery and despair.
And each link is a piece in my miserable life.

And why?
Because of you.
You who fucked me as your ecstacy.
you who left me,
and created my endless pain link by link.

Now on this cold floor,
beneath this heavy chain,
I smile psychotically,
and continue joining links,
adding to my pain
bit by bit
piece by piece
in the silence of this darkened room
