Dracula

By Bryony Sheldon

Hiding and haunting
He rushes me in the night

Scalding and scorching
Hellfires are burning bright

Gutting and gashing
Reopening all my wounds

Fighting and thrashing
Quickly the darkness consumes

Skulking and stalking
In the shadows of my mind

Maiming and mauling
Cut free the terror inside

Pulsing and pounding
My heart spits and seethes and sears

Howling and hounding
I’m skewered with guilt and fear
