I slowly rise from my grave
Looking for a hapless prey
The blood moon shines menacingly
Trying to hide my sinister face
I scream and it starts
The brooding destruction
The flowers wither; the trees die
I move slowly in a daze
Absorbing the devastation
And I finally find it
My prey I have been looking for
Scared and alone in the wilderness
I move closer and look
The face of dread and fear
My heart palpitates
My mind awakens
I raise my hand to touch
The soft shivering skin
It moves away crawling
A smile plays on my lips
I shorten the distance
I take it out from inside
My fruitful companion
So sharp so beautiful
I raise the blade high
And look into its eyes
Memorizing its look
The blade strikes
The blood spatters
My face is drenched
I taste the purity in it
The fear gives a tangy taste
It is a slow death;
I see the life drain out of it
I feel the heart stop
Mesmerized
I wait for a while
Drinking the pleasure
And then start
To search for the next prey.

Looking back at my memories
I wonder whether we were really in love
I chased after you like a fool
Not recognizing your faded smile.
Our love had many obstacles
But we rushed forward ignoring it.
The storms never ceased
In the end we were washed away
Like a castle made in the sand
We couldn’t hold on for long.
Like little kids fighting for toys
We fought with all our might
Worrying more about not losing
We ended up losing ourselves.
The day everything came to an end
The sound of our screams, the words
Which we should have never uttered
Hardly seems notable now.
Looking forward I wonder
Will we meet in the far-off future?

— The End —
