Uninvited Guest – An Original Poem

I see you up there, at the top of the stairs.
Your rare stare piercing my soul bare,
with eyes of flame and a horrid grin,
sitting Indian style with only sin within.
A silhouette ravaged by pointed ears
atop stunted bones and withered sarcomere.

A parasite residing within these walls
of shadows, whispers and skin that crawls.
You came for one thing and one thing alone,
targeting me, because I'm on my own.
Fear is what's on your lustful mind,
but I've grown accustom to your kind.

I drug my love from this retched place,
shaking with foam defacing her face.
I have seen the worst that you can do,
but this is the first time seeing you.
I give you know power, I'm not afraid.
You vulgar beast, fading unmade.
