It crept down and strong
tightened its grasp
as it journeyed along
and penetrated through,
the cracks in my bone,
my heart and sinew
It held on, too tight
refused to let go
Even through the fight
The slash of the dagger,
the tears of blood
but it did not stagger
But oh, what a shame
when it withdrew
I hath nothing to blame
It plucked out every vein
blissfully and violent,
It drove me close to being sane
But alas I sailed away from the shore,
at the peak of insanity,
looking for the creeper once more.
