No poems this time
No clever stringing of wit
It's just me, crawling into my grave
Just gnashing at my hair, as your betrothed has gone away
If only to equal your pain
You once poured your heart out in my hands, as I clenched
My fingers burled large in the wounds of your ribs
….Of your ribs
I chose poison to ascend me, no one could ever replace
Instead of Elysium or the heavens, where we'd escape
Without you now I wake to live in a grave
….In my grave
The jester will cackle at how foolish I am
And I will join your betrothed in the grave
I am just another worm to the earth

Day 3; blood transfusion complete
As you awake anew beast
A new terrifying breed
To you, your creator laments
This is the hunter's dream
It implores you to feed on only pain and anguish
You are blinded, but first attempt to speak
I am not stranded here with you
But you are stranded here with me
Withering oak painted against darkness becomes your home
No champion to your might
Crude weapons fuel your lust for blood
Despite your lack of sight
You're a most fearsome hunter
It implores you to feed on only flesh and terror
You are famished, but first attempt to scream
I am not stranded here with you
But you are stranded here with me
Withering oak painted against darkness becomes your home
Terrible fear
An endless well of strength
