Prey

Prey
 
I am hunted by wolves,
forever suffering their hollow call.
I am a racing heartbeat,
stumbling;
the night falls in sheets,
into the pitch I'm pulled.

I burn to breathe,
Slick hides sever sweet escape,
the night promises grief.
I'm candy covered bait;
screaming into the abyss,
a sacrificial prey,
I offer my wrists.
 
Cannibal grins split the dark,
a razor blade slash;
savages howling for a laugh.
Teeth shatter oaths,
cleaving into bone;
the wolves they crawl within.
Parasitic;
under tortured skin.

Prey
 
I am hunted by wolves,
suffer their hollow call.
I am a racing heartbeat,
stumbling;
the night falls in sheets,
into the pitch I'm pulled.
I burn to breathe,
Slick hides sever sweet escape.
The wolves mutter lies, sugar laced,
I can taste their hate.
The night promises grief.
I'm candy covered bait;
screaming into the abyss,
a sacrificial prey,
I offer my wrists.
 
Cannibal grins split the dark,
a razor blade slash;
savages howling for a laugh.
Teeth shatter oaths,
cleaving into bone;
the wolves they crawl within.
Parasitic;
under tortured skin.
 
The Tide
Devoured by wolves,
suffer their hollow call.
I am pulled under,
the terrible deep enthralls.
 
A tide of jaws,
stills the marrow.
Slick hides sever sweet escape.
I burn to breath,
a jagged pill promise.
I take the bait.
 
Starving teeth shatter oaths,
mercilessly hacked into bone.
The wolves they crawl within,
with claws they burrow parasitic,
under tortured skin.
 
Steeled for the kill,
the pack closes in.
Savages howling for a laugh,
ensnaring sinful wings,
razor back hackles pierce the heart.
