..and the show begins

I saw death staring at me,
As I woke up in the middle of the night.
I wanted to run away from it,
And I knew the way out.
Should I or should I not,
I was caught in the dilemma.
Just a shot wouldn't make a difference I thought,
And then it never stopped.
I could barely keep my eyes open,
As the elixir mixed with my blood and took control.
Everytime I woke up only to realize I needed it once more,
And the show went on and on......
