the chamber
a door opens / darkness draws me in /
I’m all alone / sleepless dreams / memories /
without a past / I’m here / yet far away

the prey
you are my animal / I am your prey
you are chasing after me/
I’m hiding in the undergrowth
you pass / my heart is pounding
you will come back

child, pleading

you offer me your pain / I eat / it hurts.
not the pain / but the memory / of you
