Caught me by surprise. Took hold of my gaze, I struggled to gain control, but was just pushed back. My breath vanished.

I tried to breathe, but just inhaled uncertainty.

I felt my words, the poison, tempting my lips.

I wanted to quit, but there's no use, with the never ending abuse, which told me what I needed to hear.

I tried to move, but my passion kept me wounded.

I'm just another puppet to myself.

I screamed, but the silence, the silence seemed to object.

The silence, that always tells the truth. It calms, but also fueled the desire I couldn't bear.

I ran, ran far away, but couldn't leave where my golden gaze had remained.

I objected, I told myself I would regret it.

But I regret a lot of things.

I screamed out, but no one heard. Just the white lie that didn't care.

Black, the night just a pawn. It spoke softly, I could barely hear the words.

If even anything was said.

A cataclysm bound to happen, but yet left me with a feeling of choice.

The loaded lie.

I pulled the trigger.
