Death hugged me so tight I swear I literally felt my bones breaking.
With it's long, freezing cold skeleton arms.
It wrapped itself around my body all night long.
It kept giggling, whispering that it has come to rescue me from the cruelty of mankind.
Fear choked me, for a moment I suffocated.
I felt my soul slowly leaving my body.
Last night death came through my door.It smelt me like I was a rotten animal and I swear it seemed to love my scent.
I felt weak at knees as it opened my ribcage wide open, tearing my skin like a wolf tearing up it's prey.
It ripped off my heart as I watched my blood dripping down it's boned-arms, I tried to scream but my voice failed me.
I shed some tears, frightened, my lips so dry I felt them cracking with the tears freezing on my cheeks.
For a moment I was numb, the only thing I remember is the salty taste of my mucus as it oozed and went straight into my opened mouth.
Last night death came through my door.I surrendered and gave in to all the scary things it whispered to me.
It was starred straight inside my eyes, it pulled me like a magnet.
It sang me a lullaby until I fell asleep.
But I never woke up.
I slept and never woke up.
Last night death came through my door.
