Imagination Overload
Sitting in the moonlight, clad in a soft white gown
Blood running from her fingers to drip to the thirsty ground
You feel her eyes upon you, beckoning you near
You try to run away, but you're frozen there with fear
The remains of her last meal, lays ravaged about her feet
The ground is slick with blood and gore, you wish you had not seen
She lifts her arms out towards you, to take you in an embrace
You start to sweat and you feel your heart begin to race
Her mouth it is an ugly gash of pointed teeth and torn flesh
It makes a sickly smacking sound as she smells your blood so fresh
suddenly she is there beside you and hitting you with a plate
You blink your eyes and shake your head, a smile forms on your face
Now comes the messy task of cleaning up from all of her food action
You are just an average teen, with an overactive imagination
It wasn't a ghoul or Vampire out to make you bloody confetti
It was just your little baby Sis, eating her spaghetti
