The Creature:
The pillars of life Crumble
Before mine eyes.
They dissolved Into a cloud
Of opaque dust.
All I have saved for Is gone from me
It had been rudely snatched
From my grasp, It has been
and will remain Stolen.
The dust which was
My life, Engulfs me:
Its appetite is whetted.
More specifically, The Creature within
The dust had acquired A taste for me.
It was The Creature
Who knocked down The pillars
That was once my life,
But are now, Dust.
I can hear The Creature
Shriek It wishes to strike
Fear Into me, It fails to do so.
For why must I fear It?
It had already taken
What was most precious to me
What more does It Want?
I know the answer. It
The Creature! The Abomination!
Wants my soul. My Pain and Grief have
Not been tasty enough morsels for
The creature.
No, The King of the Damned
Will not rest until He has savored it,
And had devoured Me.
The Creature Is impatient,
It will not wait For the dust to clear.
No, instead, He burns the
Grasses that were the foundation
Of my life,
He will attempt to
End me in a speedy and swift fashion.
I run So that I may evade
The eager flames;
I can feel The burning heat Licked against my back.
Yet I Do not Turn Back For even in the
Surrounding Darkness That the dust brings,
There is light, The Light Is Pale but full of Pureness.
It is because Of this Beacon,
That I Run, And do so
All the faster. I hear Rage.
I smile, The Creature
Is disgruntled.
It knows, That I can
Escape It. The Light Is closer.
My legs pump faster.
The Light is nearer.
The harsh breathing
of The Creature Is raspy, and Faint.
It is tiring of chasing me.
The cool, yet also Warming
Light tickles and Caresses My Face.
I run into it. When I do so,
A heavy bond is lifted!
I am freed! The Creature
Cannot Vex Me Any Longer.
For when I Ran into the Light,
A heavy And Restricting Door Was shut upon
The Creature and Someone
Had turned The Lock.
Now, As I enjoy the
New Comfort Known as Freedom,
I can hear The Creature Scream
In Its Chamber.
It Is locked In Darkness,
And Basks In Its Failure.
