She Lay Alone

She lay alone
On a bed of stone
So it felt in that moment of fear
Waiting for death
The devil within
Starts clawing and drawing near
He stands at a distance
His feelers extend
She stares at the stars as they glisten
Not knowing how
To move from this bed
As he whispers gently in her ear
Paralyzed
Bloody
Gasping for air
Nothing will ever bring it back
Its over now
With blood dripping down
His fingers run down her back
Helpless
Hopeless
Screaming in pain
No one comes back to rescue her
She rebuilds herself
Her future
Her destiny
One day it will reconcile this horrid
One day it won’t hurt this much
That day is far
A decade perhaps
But it will happen
This pain won’t last
