Forever Halloween

Stumbling through the graveyard

I can't seem to keep myself contained

Crimson down my arms, reminding me of what I did

The decision that brought me here


My legs tremble as I traverse the uneven terrain

Threatening to buckle beneath me and take away my choice

But I keep running

My indecisiveness prevailing as I stand

Seconds away from an unmarked grave


I pass tombstones of those who have gone before I

And suddenly I realize where I want to lie

My knees buckle and I drop to the ground

Not even noticing so much as a sound

Conscience depletes as the crimson completes its trek

And with a thought on my lips I succumb to the long awaited death
