Nature Of The Beast

 

Sinking your teeth into my flesh

only opens the porthole

for my inner demon to cross.

What the human eye cannot see

is the more I bleed

the greater my craving to taste

your afterlife.

When the bite wound

heals into a pentagram

you feel me grow stronger

inside your sin.

Now your impulse

has given my inhibition

the power to make the thunder

be my roar

while assisting my intuition

in guiding the lightening

into your soul.

Ignite…

         and burn

so I can inhale the ashes

that allow me to be…

Become what you were scared to be.

Mark my words,

“As you find peace in your coffin

I will not let your headstone rest.”

"Ignite and burn"... This is really where I got connected to the poem and even grew a bit scared of the speaker, hoping that I wouldn't be the one that you're not letting the headstone rest.

Great great write.
