Sirens...
Bring my back to the past.

Cold,
Lifeless body on the floor--

It wasn't time
I wasn't ready

Too soon.

A constant rhythm
Never ending
Over and over again

A reminder

You did this.

The crushing guilt,
The agony it brings,
The thing only I will remember first hand.

Cold, bloody hands

Still--silent

A body that shall never move
Not again,
Not ever again.

Lollipops can only conceal the truth,

Keep a child happen for only so long,

And when the time comes

The child will seethe with anger

And that child will be me.

I will be consumed by this guilt,
This pain,
This SUFFERING.

It is mine to bare

Mine.

Mine only.
