I did it again,
I have become their bloody prey.
I’m slowly getting used to how the
Savages
Approach,
Chase, and
Overbear me.
My pleading eyes stare at the distant nothingness.
I have become their struggling snack.
A being easily replaceable, who the
Firece savages
Snatch,
Drag and throw away.
Sharp teeth dig deep in,
My still throbbing body.
I am already unconscious, the
Frenzied predators
Toy with me
Pin me down, and
Tear me into a thousand pieces.
I am dying an agonizingly slow death, leaving a bitter
Taste in their mouth.
I’m still alive, but soon will be gone.
With a wide malicious grin, the barbarous
Savages feed on me.
Munching approvingly.
Bending over a me a red-brown
Pair of eyes. With the most tender look that
Calms me down. But it is still him who finishes that the
Other savages
Have begun.
His eternal kiss of death takes
My meaningless life.
