Distracted by its presence

I can't help that it is around running in the midst of the scene

Seen his sharp pointed horns coming out of his forehead like a rosebud blooming from its thorns

Take control of my mind, body, and soul

Release me, I begged him.

Attend to me, he said to me.

Came too close to me. I wanted to scream.

Taunts his sinful love for me and begs me to leave my saint-ful sanity

I wanted it to be a dream so I can awake from this horrid nightmare so I can leave.

Over my head wondering why is it still here.

Need to get out of here
