I wake up with sweat dripping from my body
I look out my bedroom window
Outside a woman dressed in black is smiling
I walk through a door
Entering the realm of nothing
Lost I am
But I do not speak
A wolf guides me back to my nest
I do not want to leave my protector
Entering back through the door
I transform back into dirt
They bury me like they buried her
Deep into the ground
The wolf howls outside
Calling me back
But, snakes are holding me within the ground.
Don’t leave the Garden they whisper and slither all around
One bites me
Injecting me with the gift
The wolf vigorously digs through the ground
Oh protector how you already walked right over me
I awake one last time
I awake to a man with no name or face
Just hands
He touches me all around
Jealousy reaps from his hands
He cuts my wrists and drinks of my blood
Hoping for the venom to seep inside him
