Cold Feet

Cold Feet

A Poem by shukisrl
"

I wanted my brother to make this into a song but he said it was too dark.

"
Re-awaken with a mouth full of dirt
I stumble in my vessel of my own demise
Alive again with a purpose

Vengeance is a flirt
There shall be no more lies
An event to define my auspice

Breaking way through the ground
I stand not a human, but beyond
An entity of something greater

Off to town
Through the graveyard doors I abscond
My brain is moving faster

My bones crack, my tendons inflate with blood
It's time to find him
One step at a time I come closer to my goal

Wiping the crud off of my fingers
The sounds of cracking grow in my limbs
I truly understanding the meaning behind "foe"

A decade in the ground, enough time to think
Only feet away from the door
A girl inside the house looks upon the creature

She does nothing, doesn't even blink
Looking upon me as if I were a face sore
I was a splinter, a fever in her mind

She backed away and ran
With a swift kick I shattered the door
The parent's hear the noise up stairs

Then what approached seemed to be a man
I stepped inside ready to implore
My return has been declared

He appears ten years older, struggling to remember
My claws reached for his throat
Eyes large he understands
It was after death that I found life's meaning, in December
There was nothing, not even hope
My pupils expand

Screams fill the air, nothing but pain resides
I drag his body back to the grave
Where he shall take my place as I take his
