A rape by death ...
Cold, callous, it laughs,
Chills run down my spine,
An adrenaline roller coaster
But I remain glued
Graceful, poised it glides towards me,
Approaching near, it summons me
Its malicious voice masked by fake pity and concern,
Seduces, molests; its eyes livid with greed
It has attempted the same before
I managed to hoodwink it so far
But now it feels for me
Can no longer see me in pain
It wants to help me, it says
Wants to end my anguish, comfort me instead
My pain is its fodder, I am aware
But it's my only chance, my ray of hope
Helpless, lost in thought, mind befuddled
I wonder, just wonder
I wonder a little more...
I give in
I realize now, too little, too late,
But there's no turning back
It grabs me, pushes me, cackles, victorious
I, in its withered, lifeless arms, silent, patient
I no longer possess the energy, the strength
It has won the battle, my each wound a scar of remembrance
Of how I tried, how I really tried
Of how my efforts were but in vain
Alas, it strips me naked, surveys my nudity
Its face determined, eyes wild, it kisses with passion
My soul sucked, thoughts dispersed, life lost
It smiles peacefully, gloating with pride
I tried, I really tried
For you, for us
The secret remains that I sacrificed myself,
But to the world, it was a rape by death
