Blood -
There was blood all over
and
I
was
scared.
I felt its warmth
gushing out of my flesh
and its salty,
somewhat bitter taste
filling my mouth.

It was a strange process:
I was consuming
this fiery crimson tide
as fast as I was secreting it
out of my body.
The torrent
by which blood makes its way inside me
makes my throat feel the sharpest pain,
and yet I could not complain,
for the pressure it imposes
debilitate my power of speech,
and all I could do is cry
without any sound
and with tears of blood
flowing out of my eyes,
completely blinding me.
I try to escape the process,
but it seems like every move I take
triggers the pain switch
and elevates
my suffering
multiple times.
And so I stop trying to escape,
and I simply lay still.
I give myself up
as a slave to the process of life and death.
I surrender.

i usually upload stuff in the daytime, yet this one is a creature of the night, and thus debuts while its kind surrounds. originally in prose, but later crumbled by bleakness into poetry form.

come witness a nightmare i had, strangely while i was awake... this is the part i can share.

i've analyzed it multiple times already, and its "reality" disturbs me. i give you the liberty to dive into it as well, if you so dare.

I never knew such a dream would approach you, and a very vampiric dream too, it seems. Sealed fates of sin, defilement of ones actions through deterioration of will, we write our own stories, but we don't always know - on the surface - the outcome. The results are sometimes desturbing, and most times result in learning more about ourselves. And the world digs deeper, as part of a collective I hope you feel anything but alone. Dreams are but expressions of a beaten path.

I'm absolutely fascinated by this dark description.
