When Your Lover Turns Into A Zombie...

By LiP Stiches

A scratch
Creates a line in the flesh...
It tries to release the soul
And the warmth...

But...You hold your hands up
To catch what little hope escapes
And wash it away.

A force so strong
Hits you in the chest!
You can't catch your breath
While clutching your heart!

A soft moan surrounds you
The tears begin to flow
Words wont hurt you now....you must run!

A quickened beat creates fear
The air cuts into your lungs
A fire erupts
you voice is but a whisper.....Don't you dare shout!

Your sent flows to them
A hunger that will never be fulfilled
It wont stop following you
You must survive.....Don't even look back!

A hand reaches out...
It grasps the air around you.
The wind flirts with decaying dreams
Screams rise with the bile
This is the end....

or is it?
