i'm laying in bed
when i hear a creak
i swallow my fear
and spring to my feet
i look around
but all i see
is the shadow standing
in front of me
i want to scream
i try to fight
but i am paralyzed
due to fright.
i inch forward
and he draws near
then the following words
are all i hear.
"i want to fucking kill you
i want to bleed you dry
i want to hang you from a star
so your blood condemns the sky
i hope my words
rip through your heart
enter your dreams
and tear them apart.
take your soul
watch it die
collection of needles
stabbed into your eyes
this is pain
this is real
this is how
you make me feel"
at this point
nothing remains
all that i have
is a carpet to stain.
i engage the shadow
a piercing sound
i feel the pain
and i look down
my hand now broken
and bleeding fast
on the floor
are shards of glass
there was no shadow
just myself
this is my life
this is my hell
i pick up the glass
there is no doubt
i locate my heart
and cut it out.
but before this happened
the phone had rung
instead of picking it up
i wish i'd hung.
but this is what
i leave for you
this to read
and a stain to view
