Spoken Secrets (Various Poems and Short Stories)

Who Am I?

I can see something in the dark,
Bright red eyes and a fiery tongue.
Its claws are covered in staining blood,
Its curling tail is hiding someone.

Who it is I cannot see,
But the creature is looking at me.
Blood red teeth and a blackened heart,
Disassembled bodies torn apart.

I step back and it mimics me,
A devilish grin and hunchback feet.
Who is this creature by the shelf,
A fractured vessel home from hell.

I look at it and it stares back,
A blacked out body for attack.
I raise an arm, it raises one too,
That thing is me killing you.
