LITERARY: Pretty Face
Bloody red stilettos Ribbons tangled around slender legs Curves in the right places Wrapped in a tight silk dress
Fair skin, almost too fair Her cold glare aroused me The embodiment of aphrodisia Standing ten feet ahead
She whispered, “Don’t look away.”
“Do you like my pretty face? Do I fill your heart with lust? Should I come closer To quench your blazing desire?”
A cool breeze whistled through the window I flinched and blinked Now, she’s on all fours She’s a bit closer now
Bloody red scars Limbs tangled like slender branches Curves reaching absurdity Crippled body in a silk dress
Pale skin, almost ghastly Her cold glare made me shiver With dark hair concealing half her face Crouching five feet ahead
She croaked, “Don’t look away.”
“I know you’ll like my pretty face I will make your heart flutter I’ll come closer if you ward off I will keep your desire blazing.”
The pounding of my heart was deafening Instead of lust, terror restrained me Trapping her with my stare Trapping me with nauseating fear
Every minute, her body disintegrated Once an aphrodisiac, now a corpse Bloody red scars turned white From maggots residing in her skin
Pale dead flesh, falling apart Stench of decay surrounding the room Silk dress covered in mildew She gave a literal deadly stare
Her, taking pleasure from being watched While my eyes watered yet felt dry Maybe for half a second, she won’t notice I blinked
“DON’T LOOK AWAY!” Now she was directly above me “DON’T LOOK AWAY!” Cold rotten blood dripping on me “DON’T LOOK AWAY!” Stench of death suffocating me
“DON’T LOOK AWAY!”
She kept screaming, mouth full of blood “DON’T LOOK AWAY!” I could see her face now “DON’T LOOK AWAY!” She looked familiar
“Don’t look away.” Her voice lowered I took a step back She took a step closer
No choice but to stare at her Hanging from the ceiling My face crimson red from blood Finally, a drop fell into my eye
I blinked, She disappeared Replaced with someone else Again, ten feet ahead
Bloody red eyes Ribbons tangled on his shoes Twisted smile on his face Looked exactly like me
