Marico: Before she was Freed

All alone the darkness engulfs me.

My heart beats in longing for the day

The day I will be free

I wish that I was with my family

A voice echoes through the room

It is that person who says she's my mother

The one who lies to me every day,

The one I want to torture and kill

When her voice goes away I fall asleep

My real mom and dad are there

Mariko we love you, please come here

I hear them shout

I run and run but never reach them

Then, as I am running to them, they are killed

I scream as I watch them die, never able to fight back

I wake up feeling as weak as ever

Darkness engulfs me again

Will I ever be free?

The doors slightly open, there are people outside

They are not my parents though,

So I guess I will just have to kill them

I smile as I envision how to torture them

I smile as I walk into the light and,

kill one of them, I kill my false mother.

Her lukewarm blood splattering all over my cold body

I fell happy and move to kill another

The emptiness in my heart now filled with pleasure

The guilty pleasure I get after killing someone

A pleasure that I cannot live without
