Hollow

by

Vera Secrease

Crimson still dripping from your fingertips. You give me a
wicked smile. The fire in your eyes burn deep inside my
chest where my heart was just moments ago. I don't even
recall how it exactly happened. Memories of you getting
close scrape across my mind. Your hands lingering near my
body. I remember looking into your eyes, eyes lit with
engulfing flames that refuse to let me turn away.
Then a flash...
I didn't feel the pain...at the moment.
It took a few seconds, then it began. I look at you, lips
parted into a wicked enthralling grin, gleaming white teeth
showing through, your bloodstained hands...HOLDING MY HEART!
The aching, shock and pain came in waves crashing unrelentlessly
upon me, drowning me in pools of my own tears. I glance up to
see you laughing in your vindictive little way, devouring
my heart in the most disgusting sort of fashions. But still
you mezmorise me...uncontrollably, even as I lie here dying
for you... LET ME LIVE! GIVE BACK MY HEART! ERASE YOUR MEMORY
ROM MY SOUL!
