Living bitterly: condemned to die,
Like prisoners.
His gaunt face enlivened by
My living eyes-
Which watch in horror...
Where my skin crawls with disgust for him:
These living eyes which stare at my enemy.
His smile is wider than my own,
For he knows I live in torment and it gives him pleasure.
Smiling, he awaits beneath my flesh.
Crawling skin that I live in...
Take me from this place.

Raw emotions so powerful. You captured this with such honesty.
