Betrayal

BETRAYAL
Cassandra  in me, you unleashed
I sense in you a sunken moon
You served me a casserole 
Of limping dreams, hollow love
and deaf weeping dolls......
Looming from the dark,
the scary flow of wriggling
worms in my bed and they
Eat me up, erode me up
I sense this feel in you...
Gleaming sharp blade of hacksaw
Sways in front of eyes...I feel that
Damocles sword is less powerful
as its teeth slit my throat...
Gushes profusely poisoned blood....
Hemlock coated Saw I guess...
I sense you in this feel.....
I also see another prophecy
A deadly push from behind I get ...
Deep into a dark dungeon
Dangerous and bottomless
I can feel your treacherous thrust
I see a Renegrade approaching me
With a murky coat in a miasma
Filled with back-stabbing 
deceitful cruelties....
He rips my heart to pieces
Scattered they fall on ground...
a wicked smile of victory looms on
his face as he pops into his mouth
toffee of betrayal from the 
Pandora's box, which he held 
as his prized posession...
I smell this foul filled cheater in you!
