He stares at cars, Pleading for them to run him down. The alcohol makes his lips bleed. End it He is covered in scars, End it Screaming without a sound, End it When will it stop? Byron's words echo, "Her faults were mine- her virtues were her own" Please, no more, please The back of his eyes Play the story. Astarte, Aphrodite Arches her back, Drenched in sweat. He feels at the scares she left on his neck. Snap back, reality slowly lowers The knife into his rib. Lightless, lifeless. God, is this all there is?
