Death's Playmate
By Nomar Knight
Trapped within hollowed walls
My cries forever binding
They swirled and squeezed
Against my chest
The sins were oh, so blinding
Her curled mane of crimson
Wrapped around a tiny neck
They swirled and squeezed
Her life away
This savior left not a speck
Guilt smothered sordid pleas
Stomping wails across my brow
They swirled and squeezed
Another day
Yet time escaped me somehow
Small corpses in a chest
Waiting for discovery
They swirled and squeezed
A mangled mess
Released by recovery
Evidence encaged me
Ghostly cries forever binding
They swirled and squeezed
Ending their breath
The curse began rewinding
Released to maim again
More victims lying in wait
They swirled and squeezed
For me to stay
Their dark princely playmate
