The place just beyond my eyes, where my spirit flies.

Door creeks with backlashes
Pounding me in the hallway
Transparent faeries flutter above
Kiss my cheek with Honeydew drops of terror
Then they expire
And fall shriveled in my quaking hand
The only movement I'm allowed to make in that moment
Is the closing of my hand
Crushing their little lifeless bodies
Hearing the bones snap I turn my head and vomit
My hands are moist with what seems like water
But realization takes hold of me
This is liquid from the leaking faeries
A cold sweat comes over me
Abdomen flex and I vomit over my shoulder again
Waves of terror like those of tidal
Envelop me when a faery kisses me
With those Honeydew terror lips
I have to crush them
My evil inside wills it
And I churn again
When I realize that this evil inside
Is making me like this.

"Give me you thoughts. Good, bad, but not INDIFFERENT!"

Oh yeah, I agree completely on that.

I didn't really connect with this piece. Interesting narrative though.

Darkness,
this is an interesting concept that is well played out in this piece.
For me, it prompts the question, "If in destroying good we are aware of the force evil, why then do we continue to pursue evil's path and destroy good?" I like your use of faeries as the sparkle of light that must be crushed.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
