Hungry
“I'm always hungry.”
“I never know why.”
“I eat. And eat. And eat.”
“I'm never full.”
“Maybe it is their screams?”
“It couldn't be?”
“I made sure to rip their vocal cords out?”
“Why can I still..
“hear them?”
The blood started to puddle around me
It gets higher. Higher. HIGHER.
“Im going to drown.”
“I feel their hands wrapping around me, it hurts..”
“Im sorry”
I whisper, no one will hear it anyways.
It's not true anyways. I'm still hungry.
So I'm still the monster they scream
as I tear away the innocence they once had.
