Serial

There was
Something so calming
Watching your breathing slow to a stop
And how your eyes
Rolled back into your head

I’m not fond of bleeding
Strange as it sounds
I get aroused

It stops
The scratching noises
When you finally stop kicking and moving
Peaceful and still
Until it calls again

Shook from my sleep once more
I didn’t look for
What had found me

How could,
I want to stop myself
From running to the last exit left
In burning rooms
With others screaming on fire?

They all are so random
I don’t hate you
God told me to
