Torture Of The Night

Cold reddened eyes stare deep into me
Searching the darkened depths of my core
Its morbid breath penetrates my rising lungs
As my hearts frightened rhythm takes an undecided detour.

Back into those flaming eyes I stare
With determination and strength concealed within my plight
As his claws seep deep into my veins and skin
All is quiet among the darkened torture of the night.

The blood slowly squeezes through the pours of my cells
And fills the watery liquid of my bulging red eyes
Choking on the blockage buried within my clenched off throat
Scuffing out temptations to painfully scream and cry.

Visions fading into darkness for lack of flow to the brain
A bloodthirsty demon taking life as my fate
Making the torture of the night my final drawing breath
Lying limp within his grasp, his strength did painfully demonstrate.

Hello.

I liked this piece...I was expecting the person to wake up and realize it was only a dream, but the ending was obviously not that! Still, I enjoyed the surprise. Keep up the good work!

"cherry blossoms"

Floating to the ground
Light pink in your soft colour
End my memories

Welcome, Amy.

This poem was intense. And almost,
offhanded in its undoing.

Damn.
