And Strangers Came

My heart clings to the 
memories of that night 
When the strangers came 

I lay on my neatly dressed 
bed 
With the sheet recently 
changed 
Staring at the ceiling
Carefully studying the patterns 

She would be here soon 
I thought, as I glanced at my 
wrist 
Wearing a goofy grin 

Tonight should be the night
I consoled myself 
After many nights of failed 
attempts 
Blood running towards my 
groin 
Goose pimples playing its 
tricks 
On my skin 

Euphoria hitting me like drug 
abuse 
As I fantasize the night ahead 

Alas!!! I hear my door go 
knock 
Like a child running to 
embrace his mama 
I answered the door 
That's when my limbs went 
numb 

They stood there 
Holding her like a strayed child  
The lust in their eyes 
Shinning like a rising sun 

little sobs escaping her lips 
Driving painful thrusts into my 
heart 

And I tried, tried to save her 
That's when I felt the tin sharp 
blade 
Sliding into me slowly

I could do nothing now 
Nothing for her 
I felt the warm liquid sliding 
down my belly 
Slowly I found the ground

As I watch them quench Their 
lust 
One by one, 
They took turns on her 
Like their last supper 
They lavished her 

Calling onto my name slowly
She moans bitterly
Begging for my life and hers 

The tears from her eyes 
Making my blood gush 
As I curse my existence
For the pains she receives now
As a parting gift   

before the last one reached 
******  
The reaper came for me...
