The Beast

You’re a murder

A thief

A predator of time

You suck the life out of each and every soul

Including mine

You add it to your collection

And you walk away

Never satisfied by the amount you’ve obtained

Your prey can run and hide 

But you hunt them

And you find them

And you drown them

There they die 

Under the sea you have dropped them in

Their last words will never be heard

Because as most beasts do

You do not listen to their pleas 

You do not hear their reasoning

You ignore the sounds of death

And you pitilessly throw them to sea
