Beneath Us
March 30, 2017
The lights shimmered down on her freckled cheek
On an average night of boy and girl playing hide and seek
Laughter and smiles filled the space
But only to be interrupted by her escape
He screamed and shouted for her name
The house didn’t seem like a place for a game
Finally she returned in the sense of despair
With blood and worms all in her hair
She raised her bloody claw and growled with anger
As she killed the boy who never thought he was in danger
