Unlike I
Chairs quickly hit the floor like pins
Feet’s Scatter away as lightning
Terrified screams linger in the air akin to a sweet aroma
Thoughts are not thoughts anymore but words trembling out
“What is that thing,
it’s not human”
“Look at it it’s so pale,
But so vivid yet how can a thing so strong look frail”
“I don’t want to die,
I don’t want to die
Please, please don’t let me die”
Tears flow out as streams of pearls
Words swiftly halted as body into submission
Breath and all sound vanish into the wind
And Shadows spew forth like blood
And I look upon my pale skin decorated with splashes of crimson,
And I look upon my frail hand dipped, and covered
In something warm and alive, so alive
Unlike I
