My heart beats in my ear drums My blood boils in my head The blinding white and silence and the soft folds of my bed Then the world comes to hit me It all starts with a bang The searing red of his blood and the pain that comes in pangs
I leap up from my white grave Escaping by inch the knife Crash through the window panes and inhale the breath of life But the horror is not over And racing down the empty streets I feel my body breaking as my eyes do slowly bleed
I set the roads on fire Indiscriminate in my aim Searing the terrors in black and burning in my shame Still their blows are relentless Gashes and slits on me And while I shriek in terror no one will hear my plea
––––––––or someone––––––––
Pulled to by my screaming Always shielding in my way His roars the town would wake the fights just child's play Bare-****** he slew my pursuers Down the throats of every one And before I could catch my breath all the deeds were done
I panted and watched embarrassed As he turned to look at me Dressed in my undergown with my hair wet and free Yet despite the bloodied state And my sorry battered mess He tread calmly over to carefully straight my dress
While the rest of the world used me While its people hated me While I took harried breaths and was drowned in the sea Somehow he always knew And at the stretch of a hand He would pull me ashore and breathe life into me again.
