Tainted Exposure

in a cold dark alley on the wrong side of town

i hide in the shadows, shivering, shaking

cowering in fear, tucked away from the world

yet still exposed to the brutal winds of pain

winds of truth

storms of right vs wrong

war of the tainted vs pure

i am tainted

blood poisoned, brain intoxicated

liver failing, lungs decaying

everything turns to black

every tissue, every organ begins to rot

in my own alley, on my own side of town

hiding from my shadow, filled to the brim with hate

cowering in fear, for i cannot escape this cruel world

here i lay exposed, with no shelter from my pain
