MISS K-MAREE

There’s blood on the walls,

Red splattered across the floor

You’ve got the knife in your hand

And you’re cutting,

You’re stabbing

You’re slashing

You’re mutilating,

Not hearing the screams of, “Im not dying!”

The blood on your face going to stain

Coming from the person that stole your name

I watch you

Tears in my eyes

Not from sadness,

But delighted surprise

I never thought you could do it,

Should have known you were strong enough…

One more moment and the bastard is dead

[You resist the erg to turn the knife on you instead]

You laugh uncontrollably,

Staring at what you’ve done

It’s never felt so good for you,

To prove me wrong.

You drop the knife and get to your feet

The person on the ground before you,

Writhing in defeat.

Its an obscure feeling,

One that you’ll never forget]

You look to me, eye wide

Now yourself inside

I take you in my arms,

As you beckon me over

And breath in you’re new warmth

Strange how your back bone feels so much stronger

You’re so over powered by happiness you begin to shiver

And you smile as my lips begin to quiver

I look into your eyes,

The real ones that once hid behind the lies

There’s a change in everything you now are

You kiss me and I taste a something new,

Your tongue doesn’t move in the timid way it used to

You hands feel different, you now know what you want

And Im willing to give everything you need to you

What you once were

Lies empty on the floor

There’s no more life in that shell

The straight jacket that held you back all you were

You’re free now

No longer afraid

You’ve got the world at your feet

And you’re not scared to leap

You whisper, Im back

And I begin to shake

Everything you now are

I longing to take

There’s blood on the walls,

Red splattered across the floor

You broke through the paint that smothered the real you

You ripped it open, broke through, peeled it off, almost too late

I think that this moment,

Was worth that wait.
