The Vixtim Within


I have been known by many names,

        Some with love and affection but most to hold my head down in shame

 

        I am my own tormentor from deep within

        caused bt my own indescretions of which I tend to share,

        simply because i was too old and too stubborn to care

dont try and save me save the bear

       

        Death is something that I have constantly chased,

lke the sight of cheese at the end of a mouse race

 

          I live with my demons day after day attempting not to sin,

         But at last I know that I am my own tormentor from deep within
