Dungeon

How can you say you love someone,
Only to leave them a stranger?
Never again sending a friendly word in their direction,
Letting them rot in a cold, empty dungeon.
The rats have begun their work.
Body and mind slowly decompose.
I’ll never trust another soul.

Shadows consume me.
A faint light once shimmered up above,
But that was long ago.
Now there’s nothing.
No hope.
No reason to fight.
This thick darkness will swallow me swiftly,
As I descend into madness.
