My Grim Reaper

By SinisterSkittles

I sit here and what do I see?
My demons starring back at me.
No where to go.
No where to hide.
They will never be satistifed.

Cut them, cut them out!
Let my blood run about.
They can't ever haunt me then,
When I do not wake in the end.
How can they chase me when I don't run?
Is this all just for fun?
They can't catch me till I'm dead,
lying there on the river bed.

Scars wil open, some anew.
Now they're all watching you.
Laugh as you cry.
Watch as you die.
My blades are my alliby.

Skin so cold yet blood so red.
You can live, but you choose to love instead?
So much on my mind,
I'm fed up with it.
Cut them, CUT THEM OUT!!
Let my blood run about.
They can't ever haunt me then,
when I do not wake in the end.

I sit here and what do I see?
My demons starring back at me.
No where to go.
No where to hide.
Deeper
               and
                        DEEPER   inside
I am my own Grim Reaper

    Not my usual style but I do like! I suppose your own realisation is indeed your attempt at running away. Nice one
