Animal Abuse

Rain trickles down my furry cheeks
Mixing with my salty tears
I should've known all along
To stand up to my fears

Instead I lie here helpless
Soaking in my own blood
Waiting for the images
To be washed away with the mud

My limbs are numb
The pain is fierce
For death I am sure
There is no known cure

I shouldn't be lying here
Waiting for death to come
On this cold solid cement ground
My fight I should have won

Dozens of pictures
Flashing through my mind
And I attempt to search
For any pleasant times

Everything around me
All becomes a blur
As i continue to lie here
Waiting for death to occur

My eyes start to close
As death draws nearer
I wish I had seen this coming
Wish I had seen my life clearer

I allow the sudden peace
Take the weight off my shoulders
The weight that had once felt
Like ten thousand large boulders

Now welcoming darkness
I start to feel light
As I'm accepted by death
And leave behind this horrible night
