Big Sister We Failed To Survive

The darkness creeps in like a crawling child
trying not to make a sound.

but engulfing others making them
and their screams.
just like trying to make a fool of a clown

as the black pinches white.
and darkness beats light
we shall spin in utter lust.

i lay among your breasts
and as i feel your heart beat race from your chest
i know your just as scared as me.

until our father comes in
and flips that switch
we are powerless to the unholy witch.

and she'll bake us a cake while inviting us in
we know we should take heed of her evil grin
we walk inside and the rest lies of the story lies in her stomach.
