My Demon, I Wait...

I wait for the collar The leash The reigns

I wait there

In my bed

For him to come out

To come after me

To take me

Finally to his side

The true side

This world is not for me

There is no one here

Little inhumane things

Running around like vermin

Annoying little dots

I wait here in agony, impatient

I wait for his lead

I wait for the collar

The leash

The reigns

For him to come after me

To fulfill me

To complete me

I die here

Waiting for him

His control in wisdom

Here with bloody nose

Watering eyes

Red cheeks

Hair filled with sick

I wait for him to come

Bathe me

Cleanse me of this world

These creatures

To finally take me

Is to take me

In

Mind

Body

Spirit

To control me

To own me

To let me let go

My demon

I wait

surreal poetry

About the Creator

Amanda Lyons

Eclectic stream of consciousness and dark surrealism. What photography does for life I do for thought, emotions, and experiences. The genres can range from romance to horror but my favorite is suspense.
