Silent Abuse

The cascading tremors of involuntary fear
The whispering threats unseen, unheard
The leering God, you pray will heed

There's nobody out there. 


The fingers smooth, a lifeless caress
A tongue prostitutes a cavernous void
A kiss, like death, stench of defilement 

There's nobody out there.


A soul exploited in numbing offence
A mind violates as pollution surrounds
A hand smothers, malevolence abates  

The world is darkness 
The ground, a chamber foreseen

Asphyxiation 

Your torment, an abortion.
