Hallow Cheeks




Color-drained hair falls on her shoulders,
like the white foam that used to flow down the drain
when she used to take those steamy long showers
and my heart pumped my imaginative brain.

Hallow eyes dress her skeletal face
a pair of emeralds filled those empty shells
they made me feel naked and unease
now they hunt me among the hidden book shelves.

Her decaying rose’s aroma lingers,
as she whispers into my ear and I shiver,
memories fly to me like shattering splinters
she lingers unrelenting and much angrier .

Hidden with the others in my secret chamber
she lies there with her black veil and rose somber.

In and out Like the silver knife my life shines between the moonlight A face I see the face Stumbling between the sea rocks The deadly precipice of fate The waves like the reaper smile in the moonlight.

Confession

Another one of his victims black eyed and running mascara. My heart sinks when I see under the running tears the familiar face she with her fire kissed hair and dark eyes. I greet her with familiarity her sight lost in the distance ignores me. I understand and proceed filling the name and birthday without questioning her. After all, friends of the family know such things. My elbow caresses the butt of my gun and it itches to be fired gun blazing the bastard out of his hiding hole as she details vividly the way the bastard beat, and forced himself into her like a rabid dog. Justice waits for no man , I think as I type every detail. Images flow into my head as I imagine warming up the bastard two to three of us should be enough to hold him down and make little detours along the way. Her voice begins to cackle and I know is the time to stop the questions and take action. Pedal to the metal , as the suburban houses zoom by and the cars part away, like a moder...
