she is death
inside me
my monster
lurks
waits
i try to pretend
i don't see her
feel her
scratching
constantly
inside
if I stay
alone
long
enough
she'll devour me
i feel her rage
her fury
scream
curdle
claw
it's way
out
she scares me
i don't want to
be
left
alone with her
she hates me
i believed i
wasn't ugly,
or
vindictive
spiteful
scorned
seething
enraged
dying
until now
my monster
moved in
now she waits.
she hates.
me.
help.
me.

Quickie, no line limit.
spoooooky, huh?
I kept thinking of Emily Rose. That movie scared the bajesus outta me. No kidding.
I still don't like being awake at three in the morning.
P.S. This isn't me, it's the prompt.
