Possession can take many forms.....




Poem Artwork


He got behind her dark eyes


one still cold night...


knitting his way stealthily


through sinew and bone


until......without her realizing.....


he became part of her being.


 


 


Caught like a deer in the headlights


she froze.. haunted...


wary... sensing


this alien presence


probing her inner self


 


 


Hunter and hunted



still as death



staring from haunted eyes


pleading......


 


Ensnared in a mortal folie a deux



enmeshed in a horror


neither can escape



they scream together silently...


his hell ....now her prison


 


tears fall softly..



from


her


haunted


eyes

Vivid imagery. A well-written poem, even if I'm not particularly comfortable wtih the subject matter.

Darkly disturbing and sad.....well set mood in the lines. Eerie is a good descriptor!

This is eerie...very dark and painful. Sounds like someone is trapped in a scary and dangerous "HELL"! ~Z~
