Little Sacrifices



"You never chose to be the one
but it's because you were perfect

Though now you bow your head
a wet carpet and steam

waiting

and me with the knife
which I as well did not choose
but you see...I am the one as well

Life is in the blood they say
and into the earth
to slumber and be reborn
perhaps to cleanse
even these shaking hands

I wish a promise to be quick
but I have never done this before
may I never again
but a sacrifice never takes itself...

So close your eyes
oh innocent one
more than just the rain now falls

mine will come soon enough"
