Monster

Trembling of the hands,
Beating of the heart,
Stumbling feet,
Shaking knees.

Horror is here,
Here to stay,
Stay with you,
Here forever in your mind.

Tortured screams
Resonate throughout
The cavernous mouth
Of the monstrosity.

Grossly deformed,
Left alone
By its master,
Now it only searches.

Its found you,
And now it consumes you,
Swallowing your screams,
Swallowing your soul.
