The thought of sacrifice brings to mind
Rotting human bodies
In the underground’s fiery pits
Thoughts of a punishment so severe
That the only fitting title for it
Is sacrifice
I think of backstabbing and betrayal
That will result in pain and beyond distrust
When you hear of sacrifice you think dark and deep.
This is the scene I imagine:
When I look back all I feel is regret.
Just one unspoken word is all it took to
Bring these chains to my very arms and legs
Just one unspoken word is all it took to
Bring me this unbearable torture
Seeing the red rivers fall down my arms,
I think of the rivers my friends cried.
The grimy floor
Seemingly something out of a movie
A mock reality
But this is some much more real
Something much more scary
Who would’ve known sacrifice would be this hard?

This was an old poem I have played around with. Any requests for poems I should do?
