Control Your Imagination

shh

shh

listen

it's best not to scream

look at the creatures before you

it's hard not to squeam

they're terrifiyng

they're frightning

they reach to the skys

they're teeth are bigger than my fist

but they don't punch 

they dive

shh

shh

don't make a sound

these creatures could hear you living

try to breath a little less

your chest I see is heaving

your heart beating is direct

but don't worry 

they're to busy

tearing off that flesh

they have begun their eating

so to them we're not a threat

shh

shh

stop stirring little boy

the little girl in front of you

was just a little toy

...well now she's just nothing

just slabs of rotting flesh

it's a good thing they got the best of her

cause to us

they'd do rest

shh

shh

why are you crying now?

it's not my fault your sick in the head

made up these beastly things that wet your bed

you have the power to make them go away

but instead your just watching them

shredding off her face...

Pretty graphic at the end, but I like it. Poor kid needs a nite lite. This would have been a good one for The Sibling Rivalry contest.
