The light bulbs burst when you walked in, And the sparks ignited my skin. The fire was still burning long after you were gone, Until I was charred to the bone. I recall how you clawed at the meat, Right above where my heart beat. Your red eyes glowed in glee, Until I could no longer see, Blinded by the one thing That I thought only you could bring. Then I heard the snipping, As you cut the strings And began humming to my screams. A harmony of two extremes. When the flood lights shone through, There was no more you; Only a permanent deformity And ripped arteries.

The light bulbs burst when you walked in, And the sparks ignited my skin. The fire was still burning long after you were gone, Until I was charred to the bone. I recall how you clawed at the meat, Right above where my heart beat. Your red eyes glowed in glee, Until I could no longer see, Blinded by the one thing That I thought only you could bring. Then I heard the snipping, As you cut the strings And began humming to my screams. A harmony of two extremes. When the flood lights shone through, There was no more you; Only a permanent deformity And ripped arteries.
