Moment

At night it creeps It lurks With evil smirks At little girls' Deadly cirque Slowly it awakens Breathing fire Into the taken Souls of the burning unknown The monster inside That slowly consumes That slowly destroys That slowly reminds Of what she has started When little girl let him in when she let crimson finally be seen Tried to hide No hope no previal Tried to run No breath no strength Tried to see No flight no light With sharp teeth And sharper claws Monster grasp at Little girl Taking hold of Her soul Her mind Her being Her entire whole Not daring to let go Monster feeds On what can never... Little girl tries to be Tries to free Herself from Monster That lives inside Drowning in dreams Monster let little girls see As soon as eyes shut To try and breathe Cables not threads Monster bound To never let little girls Run and be found By other free souls That monster couldn't hold As little girls Late at night Stare at path finder Comfort to seek Monster creeps Up from behind Slinging ropes Around gasping throat Of little girls' lost hope Little girls' screams silent As Monster grips tighter Little girls try to fight But monsters might To strong To tight Worth lost Love wasted As monster inhales Last bit of little girls' soul Too ugly Too weak Not good enough for any too keep Pride lost Disgrace found Little girl? Monster now
