Bite me

Anger pulses through me
I'm blind
I cannot see
I cannot unwind

I do not understand
So much confusion
Stuck in quicksand
It's all an illusion

My heart
A beating clock
Torn apart
A slow, weak tick-tock

Almost dead
To think I almost succeeded
Bleeding red
Even with my last breath you were all I needed
