Guilty

By RedWolf

Cornered
trapped by accusations
guilty words
tripped and tricked
the names
so many names
so many labels
just another
rat in a cage
Slipping back
darker thoughts
they turned the light out
the brightness dimmed
the song gone silent
Til death do us part?
so be it
the only escape
just let me be
and leave me to die
