Life is short
Yet it feels so long
Time is fast
Yet it feels so slow

Every day, every hour,
Every minute, every second
Feels like a piercing thorn
Slowly piercing through my soul

The key to control
Every action in my life
Was stolen by my master
And was used by my mistress

I am a slave
A tool of others
Nothing went right
Since that tragic night

It was midnight
When I heard a scream
I ran with all my might
And collapsed by the sight

The floor was blood red
My parents were dead
He is a vicious monster
Who forced me to address him as 'Master'

Mistress is the same
Who has qualities of a devil
Torturing me is their hobby
Watching me suffer is their joy

My freedom was stolen
My pride was shattered
I'm a caged bird
Who sings in a voiceless melody

I am an innocent
Surrounded by violence
They stripped my honour
Of my existence

My back against the wall
With no where to run
My knees against the floor
From the hard punch

His belt against flesh
Staining my vision in red
Me against fate
With no success at all

Silent nights
Are pierced by painful screams
Loud laughter
Is mixed with muffled tears

Fingermarks on skin
Are made by mistress's hand
The unending torture
Damaged me beyond repair

My skin is clawed
My screams are unheeded
Terror ruled this place
Fear ruled my life

I see nothing but abuse
I feel nothing but misery
I hear nothing but moans
Of my suffering soul

I inhale nothing but sorrow
Which clings to my burning chest
I exhale nothing but screams
Which won't let my soul rest

I try to escape
I try to run away
I dream of a life
Beyond reality

But my attempts are useless
My life is hopeless
I'm nothing but emptiness
And a victim of darkness

My clothes are torn
And drenched with blood
The anguish they cause
Is intense and numbing

The darkness slowly embraces me
With no one to shine a light upon me
My courage has left, and so have the rest
Yes, even my shadow has left

All may have left but my soul isn't empty
Solitude, pain, grief and agony
Fill up my soul little by little
Slowly killing me in a way I won't die

There is no hope
There is no escape
This is my fate
To suffer till the end

My pain is limitless
My sorrows are endless
My eyes never dry
My troubles never die

Why is it me?
What have I done?
I ask myself
And receive no answers

The agony increases as time passes by
Slowly reaching the limit to how much I could bear
I pray for the pain to stop reaching there
But I know that the end has arrived

My mouth spits blood
My breath comes in spurts
My eyes well with tears
My legs quiver with terror

My fragile heart beats
Hard against my ribcage
The pain from my spine
Is too strong to ignore

The intense fright
They cause me everyday
Made me feel their presence
Even before I saw them

Bearing the pain is hard
Fighting for my life is impossible
Death is the only thing
That comes easy in life

The anguish slowly paralyses my body
The stress slowly paralyses my mind
My heart seems as if it would stop any moment
The world seem to be out of oxygen

I have no reason to stand
I have no reason to fight
I have no reason to live
But I have a reason to die

Living is optional
Death is absolute
But now, death is also optional
The only option left

Why was I born
If my fate is to die?
Fate toys with our lives
And throws us when we are broken

Death is my god
Death is my friend
Death is the only way
To escape from my pain

I feel my legs
Taking me forward
They come to a halt
Then my fingers grasp something

It's handle is stiff
It's blade is sharp
I bring it in front of my face
And stare at the stranger in it

I could feel my saviour
Embracing me to it's side
My mind is at ease
Knowing that I'd be in peace

My breathing is weak
My heart is feeble
But my desire for freedom
Is stronger than ever

I take my last breath
I close my eyes
With my remaining strength
I bring it to my heart

But the devil's hand seizes my wrist
The knife never meets my heart
My attempt has failed
Mistress has succeeded

"Your life belongs to us
So staying alive is a must
Who would entertain us
If you die on us?"

A sudden storm of hatred
Echoes in my heart
My brain explodes
And my vision goes black

Mistress mustn't have dreamt
That this would be the last thing
She would be ever saying
Before she gets slaughtered

I keep staring
At her Motionless body
I have killed the devil
And now she is harmless

Blood dripped from the knife
Creating a soft melody
To celebrate my victory
Of taking my revenge

Red was the color
I hated the most
After the night
My parents died

Never did I thought
That red could be so beautiful
Until mistress started drowning
In her own sea of blood

My clothes feel sticky
By her impure blood
For the first time in many years
My lips form a smile

A gun shot
Makes my smile drop
Another gun shot
Makes me fall on to my knees

My vision is a blur
But that presence is unmistakable
It is the vicious monster
Who looks like a savage predator

Master starts panting
The gun starts falling
He holds on to his heart
And his body starts falling

The dead body
Of the predator
Hits the ground
Making me smile again

I am close to death
But I don't mind
Because I was fortunate enough
To witness two delightful deaths

A wave of relief,
Freedom and pride
Washes through my soul
A moment before I rest in peace

Every thing is dark
Every thing is quiet
Until I hear the cries of a new born baby
And I see my parents disappointed faces

I am a bud
That has fallen down
Which never got the chance
To bloom to it's extent
