• I cry loudly
    Into a crowded night,
    “Someone help me!
    Something’s not right!”

    All around me
    People mill.
    They hear me
    And yet still….

    Someone turn,
    Someone look.
    Help me find,
    What they took.

    Someone help me,
    Someone, please?
    Someone help me
    Overcome this disease.

    No one turns,
    No one hears.
    No one acknowledges
    These strangling fears.

    Anger, hatred,
    I’ve grown so cold.
    Why must I lose a soul
    I never sold?

    If you can’t save me
    I must kill you
    To save myself the pain
    Of the light that never grew!
