He Who Controls Me

He towers before me
ridding the room of any light

He moves calmly
and presents me the knife

I hesitate
trying to imagine a way out

He steps closer
and fills my thoughts with terror

He reminds me
of everything I loathe in life

I start to carve into my flesh
deeper and deeper than ever before

He lingers longer
until he is sure I am fully gone

Then he leaves
though his presence still haunts the air
