Black and White

Laura Best
 

 

You stripped me naked
Made me alone
Haunted my dreams
Created things monstrous within me.
Blood pools black thick and creamy
White tile beneath broken battered soul
Mind cries claws tears away filth
Sacrifice innocents for guilty pleasures
Blooms plucked too soon
No depth color strength
Death departs to devils delight

Remove scars unseen
Blood
Blood
Black thick streams ecstasy
Taunts filmy essence of life
Protection white against black
Evil oozes out
Black tears echo
Blood splashes mingles
Stark white legs crumple into sea of black
Elbow cuddled knees rock back and forth
Tears stream in sync

Wide eyed and scared
White approaches
Hysterical
Baby hold on
Black arms encircle white
Glares blood covered blackness
White white sit leave
Black encroaches protection
Shake harder
Black eyes hide the blackness within smothered blue and white
Hopeful lies
Black eyes black nothing else
Black blood tears
Wiped clear
Bandaged

White why
Black glare
Innocence tainted grey
Black arms touch taint
Bile bubbles
Hold it down
Fight back
Terror screams
Claws tears
Help away

White cries

Death calls
