Monologue of a Hitman on Death's Row
The guilt it overcomes me,
It stings me with its rays.
Am I to be responsible
For the ones who went away?
“Morality is clarity,”
They always said to me.
But can I be shamed
To take the blame
For what I cannot see?
The lines have blurred,
All morals bought,
I have lost sight
Of what I sought.
And so I rot
Inside this cell,
Take labored breaths
Inside this hell.
Light’s ‘a fading,
I cannot see,
But in the darkness--
Only me
Will feel the wrath
Of an endless sea,
A churning wave
Of misery:
Drowning all
Possibilities.
I’ll lie awake
Until my death,
Keep struggling on
Till my last breath.
The end is near,
But at least in Hell,
Good vs. bad--
No soul can tell.
