Don’t look back
Lock the doors
Hide within the darkness
Lights out, windows shut
Curtains closed, blacked out
Hallucinations, heart palpitations
Cold sweat, body trembling
Don’t turn back around
Camouflage in charcoal
Static in my head
Mind is numb
Paralyzed with fear
The way you haunt me
The way you focus on me
Malice within you
Your hands on me
Unwanted touch
Unwanted feels
Your arms around my body
As I struggle in your hold
Red flags all around
Fear washing over me
Innocence taken
Lilies wilted then broken
Sunflowers shine no more
Caused by you
Unwantedly undressed
Heart bleeding with lust
Arms locked, legs paralyzed
There is no stoplight
Rapid beats, rapid breaths
Everything sardonically persists
It all started with your obsession
It all started with eyes on me
You wanted me for yourself
You brought me fear
You brought me lust
Fiery eyes, watery eyes
Extinguish or evaporate
Sadism within you
Unwanted masochism within me
Your obsession interferes
As you stand and stare
As I become catatonic
Paranoia surges within me
Emanating pain and terror
There is no way out
Trapped within the cage
Your eyes unwantedly on me
Your hands unwantedly on me
The way you growl
The way I whimper
The wolf in you
The prey in me
No one else is around to witness
No one else to save me from you
You silence my voice
You resume your torture
You continue to stand and stare
Glaring at me with horror
As I resume being paralyzed
In the dark, no lights
To avert my eyes
From the torture you resume
Malice in you
Innocence lost from me
Heart palpitations arise
Cold sweats flood
My body is now an earthquake
Hallucinations surge
Static within my numb mind
Caused by your dangerous desire
Nothing but shades of red
Carmine, crimson, scarlet
You persist as I bleed
From your lust and sadism
Rapid beating wings cease
Eyes being gouged
As I become consumed by you
The praying mantis in you
The devoured prey in me
As the black widow paralyzes
Trapped in the web
No way out, nowhere to escape
Your arms caged around me
Bleeding irises
Bleeding lilies
No more birds of paradise
No more sunflowers
All wilted, all decapitated
All because of your obsession for me
All because of your eyes on me
The way you want me
The way everything I don’t want
You never comply
You continue to demand
I, all reluctant, obey
Despite the pain
The lust you caused
The chastity in me gone
I surrender
You resume the pain
No matter how many times I beg
For you to stop
You never listen
You persist the lustful torture
The stoplight remains off
I resume to scream silently
Silent screams amid static
Malice laughter amid you
As you resume…
The windows of your soul says,
“You belong to me now,”
“My lavender dragonfly.”
You persist amid my cries…
Until I have died inside
