Killing Another

He tickled her spine
Encompassed her soul
Drained her to the core

Encouraged her
To pick up the knife
"Cut vertically" he whispered

With a flick of her wrist
He moaned in pleasure
Blood flowing through her fingers

"Deeper, harder!" he commanded
Opening up her veins
Misery spills out

"One more and it will all be over" he told her
Obeying her master she dragged the knife
Through the artwork on her arm

She looked in the mirror
A scream stuck in her throat
Locking eyes with the evil thing

As she drops to the floor
It smiles triumphantly
For taking another lost soul

The monster concocts another plan
To inject itself; to release depression
In its next victim
