An unwanted hand creeps up your thigh
Your insides shrivel and you want to cry
A warm breath on the nape of your neck
Putrid and vile and reeking of threat
Another hand grips your arm
Pulling you close, promising harm
Uninvited lips pounce on your skin
Now a statue you wonder, how did this all begin?...
Tiny bipedal bugs scurry along the base of my vehicle. Their vibrant red shells a stark contrast to the white powder beneath them. I let out a thick heave of air and watch as the particles condense in front of me. Whatever planet I have landed on it is a cold and cruel one.
Taking a deep breath in I unhook myself from my seat and attempt to rise. The world is spinning around me as a great weig...
A silky smile snakes across your lips shattering any hope I had of going home alone tonight. Frozen in your eyes you may as well be Michaelangelo’s David on loan to my backwoods bar and for some reason you choose be to be your most intimate audience. Although you look as if you were sculpted from stone the warmth that emanates from your body is enough to shoot through my soul; flushing my cheeks a...
Heat fills my bones as I hold it in my hands. Empty, desolate, nothing remaining but the memory of what once was. I throw it to the side and snarl in disgust as a tear trickles down my cheek.
“How could she,” I hiss as I glare up the stairs. Slowly, I ascend, plotting my revenge. “She has to pay for what she’s done.”
As I get to her door I stare at her posters taunting me. “I bet she do...
Slumped in a decrepit wooden chair he peers about his empty living room. A bottle tumbles from his hand, adding to its overall bleakness. He moans, pulls himself to his feet, and trods to the refrigerator. As he peels it open he is forced to squint at the bright light that emanates from it. Grabbing another cool brown bottle he lurches back to his seat, collapsing into it. With stained teeth he cr...
Eyes void of light
Spirit full of spite
Their presence a cold bite
Gnarled fingers reach towards you
Their appearance a broken clue
Of a soul that has been cut through
Revel lights up across their face
Your skin to them a fine lace
Excited it is you they might debase
Rapidly you withdraw
Tension shoots to your jaw
As they rip through you with their gruesome claw
You lose all your might
No...
I lay down beneath the sweet smelling Ponderosa Pines, the snow crunching and creaking beneath me. Flakes gently fall from above dotting my skin like freckles and adoring my eyelashes and hair. The world is still and silent as if the snow has frozen everything on this earth, except for me.
It’s out here that I feel truly alone. I can forget everything and everything outside of this space and j...
Every tear that you shed sparks a fire in my chest
Of sorrow and fear and emotional unrest
Every sob that you take fans the flames
Making my soul want to die for your pains
Every piece of you that breaks breaks me too
Knowing in this world there isn’t much else I can do
Every time you look at me I want to be a mirror
In hopes that it will keep you a little nearer...
My eyes light up
As yours lose that potent shade of blue
Bet you didn’t have a clue
That I was there
Stalking you
Waiting, watching, hoping
Anticipating what would ensue
Until that fateful day
When all my dreams came true
Oh, darling, the door was unlocked
You wanted me and that was the cue
For me to creep up inside
Encounter the one I pursue
Recognition and fear flooded your face
My ra...
Bashful glances
Cheeky smiles
Your hand brushing mine
Love blossoms
Into something wild
Uncontrollable passions
Battles to control me
Keep me bottled up
My beautiful captor
A River of tears
Endless resentment
How did this turn into such a disaster?
You loved me so fiercely that I burned;
Now, you’ll only be left with the ashes...
