Her

Published on 1 July 2024 at 19:35

Deep and dark

Twisting and turning

 

Spreading like a cancer

 

Reaching with long tentacles

Into every crevice

 

Until all light is extinguished

 

Sinking, sinking deeper

Drowning beneath the waves

 

No oxygen left in your lungs

 

Destroyer of all that is good

Teller of simplistic lies

 

You grow like an uncontrollable weed

 

Desperately clawing

Clawing to the surface

 

But the weight is so heavy

 

She wants you to give up

To surrender to her will

 

But you’ve heard this siren song before

 

I close my eyes

Grab my hair

Tilt back by head

Releasing a feral scream

 

RAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

 

She releases her ice cold grip

Accepting defeat

 

But she will be back, for she does not give up
