Fear

*A work in progress*

My crimson tongue tastes the air

Feeling you, who is afraid to be here.

Your fingers curl and nausea creeps,

A nightmare formed outside your sleep.

Sweat trickles down your prickled skin

Flaunting terror and emotion

Your know I'm here, and you know why,

Your eyes, stinging dry.

I slithered from my hollow depths

Beneath the earth in shallow crypts

Slinking over fated souls

Where my venomous teeth had punctured holes

My acute eyes swarm over your flesh

Pondering your enticing death.

When you stare into my jasmine eyes

The one that hid the truth with lies,

Will you shriek with terror and fright?

Or will you grab your last strip of might?

Will you cry and beg for mercy?

The thing that just makes me thirsty.

So vivid so real, I see it now,

I sneak upon you, undressing my black shroud

I see your reaction before you see mine,

Our mouths will open at the same time

And I will lunge, rip into your skin

Cut you apart and destroy you within

Perhaps, it should be painfully slow

To tell you I'm here, so you know...

Or should it be breathtakingly quick,

So you wouldn't know what hit?

Should I suffocate the life out of you,

Until you turn a deep shade of blue?

Or use my fangs to slash and tear

Not leaving you with a prayer?

Yet nothing will compare, to seeing your face

To see your mind start to race.

Oh, you knew I existed, you knew I was close

But you kept me hidden from most.

I stayed in the shadows, so you wouldn't see me

But now, I'm a gareentee.

For when your alone, I will appear

The consequences will be severe

For locking a beast, in a mighty cage

Only fills it with more rage

You thought it was over, you thought I was gone,

But now I'm excited to show you I've been here all along.

And now that I have broken free,

It's just you and me.

So now, I will preform my duty

Slice you apart beyond memory.

You know who I am,

Your worst nightmare

The one who's always in your mind

Building up throughout time

Living in the dark places

In which you try so hard to escape

But, when everyone is gone, I promise I will always appear...

I am your darkest fear.
