I See Them.A Poem by astoundinglyattractiveI see them. In the shadows, they reside Meer tricks played by the light? Ah, but alas, the dreams! I does not explain the dreams. Please, my dear, do not call me crazy- For I have merely gone mad. Please, my dear, don’t go wasting Any of these words I share with you. I still see them. Now even in the suns rays. No matter where I stand, sit, or lay They follow close behind. I don’t know where to run to When I can’t escape my fate. But I think I finally understand, I’ll have to face it one day. I still have them. Prophecies in my sleep. Anytime I see someone, I fear it will come true. Lately they have gotten worse, And due to past examples… I can only fear for the worse, That this death will come upon them. Upon everyone but me. I’m not good. Please understand. I will try until all efforts fail- And even then I will never give up. For I believe it’s not what you CAN do, But what you DO do. So the sadist inside will stay, I will hide her from the light. I look for them. I thought I had lost them. I thought they had abandoned me. But then I saw the boy again And I was so relieved. But the man that was running… Was he running after the boy? I have decided: I will save him. I am evil. These thoughts I have… They will not go away. No matter what I do, they refuse- They do not leave me, They perverse my thoughts, They make me cry out in anger. This anger, it’s new. Something I can no longer control, And it shakes me, unstoppably. I could kill you. You see this, this knife in my hand? Do you feel the cool metal blade, Soft against your neck? Tell me how good it feels, I know. Tell me if you want me to, And I will cut you until not an inch… Not an inch of your skin isn’t red. I would not care. I would feel no remorse. I would forget, loose count. I would smile darkly, bloodstains. Then, then I would laugh. Loudly. I wouldn’t be able to stop. Long after you were dead, I would cut you, I would laugh all through the night. I now need them. When they leave, I feel insecure. I cannot do anything without them, I need their dark tendrils for survival. When I feel the cool gust, Against the back of my neck, The rancid stench of their breath… I cannot help but smile. There is a demon inside me. He is the love of my life. I will protect him to the end, And I will kill until he is satisfied. Nobody will hurt him. You cannot have him, He is mine, he belongs only to me, and I will not share him with anyone. He is all mine© 2012 astoundinglyattractive |
