Predator

It hits fast with no trace
No warning…no face
Slips in slick and sips blood quick 
Steals breath and whispers death

It chokes and grinds
Claws deep and rewires minds
No mercy…no pause
Just rot and crippling loss

It feeds and crawls
A shadow that shatters and mauls
No escape or way out
It leaves permanent scarring and doubt
