I am the life bringer
The comfort keeper
The harbinger of death.
I am the mountain destroyer, the hurricane that shreds.
I am love
Solace and compassion.
I am Galactus, the world eater
The life ender
The devourer of souls.
I collect all the hurts and all the lies and all the harsh words and drive them deep deep down
I crush them and pile them and create diamonds from my heart of stone.
I slit throats
Eat insides
Filet your chest open
Bathe in your dying.
I'll use all the hurt
The pain
I will quadruple them,
Breath them in and send them back tenfold
I am the runner
The destroyer
The darkness that consumes you
The fox in the grass
Waiting
Biding time
Hoping for change
Eager to consume
Rage encompassing
Mountain crumbling
Heart stopping.
I am the cancer that eats you
I feed and will leave nothing behind
I burn bridges
Towns
Cities
Everything gone.
I will salt your earth
Lay it barren
No life shall return to your field
You will hurt me
I will let you
Then I'll gobble you up
Grind your bones
You cannot stop me
I will not let you.
You think I'm weak but I am impenetrable
The last call
The final curtain.
I bring houses down
And beat the earth with my waves
Crumbling seashore
Flooding.
I am ruin
I am hurt
I have been feeding off your anger and criticism and disappointment
Your heartlessness gives me sustenance
Your mood swings my nutrients
I'm rope a doping you to the end
You think I'm down
That you've got me
Yet I haven't begun to get up.
I've been sleeping
This whole time I've been sleeping
My eyes are open now
I don't care
I'm destroyed
I have nothing.
My loneliness is fuel
I am my own best friend
I need no one
I need nothing
I live off scraps.
Of food
Of kindness
Of sweet words
I survive on air and nightmares.
You are empty promises
The change that never happened
A lesson that needed learning.
I am awake
There's nothing left
You can't break my walls because I've already done it
There's nothing left
Even the foundation is gone
Salted land.
Scorched earth
I was so afraid
Living in fear
Walking on eggshells
So afraid
Of waking the monster
Under my bed. Filling my closet
The rooms
The house.
I am not silent anymore
The girl is gone.
Dead.
Useless.
Afraid
I've eaten her too
Devoured
Consumed
Absorbed.
Discarding all niceties
Kindness
Flattery
Only the animal is left.
Cornered
Rabid
Hissing.
Come close
I dare you
Try and hurt me now
Try and reach me with your words
Your arguments
I cannot hear you anymore
I've grown
Exploded
I cannot hear you from up here
Only quiet
Waves
Storms
Winds
Embers.
Nothing else.
She is gone and I've killed her. Discarding her bones and her skin and her weak little mind.
I have evolved
Metamorphosised
I became.
I am the perpetual fire.
A bad dream.
I drink from the river Styx
I reside in it's waters
I'll pull you down.
I'll pull you down.
We drown.
We all drown.
