The Bones

A poem for my "Writing Prompts for October" Challenge

The bones crunch beneath my teeth.

Gnawing away at the carcass of your life.

The skeletons dance along the hallowed halls of the bloody mansion.

A crime has been comitted.

More than one to be exact.

Lifeless.

Dead.

The bones decorate the halls.

Just like the barren souls that roam the manor.

I mourn for the lives that I stole.

By hastily taking another bite.

I wrote this as a part of my "Writing Prompts for October Challenge" which you can view down below.

I have read a few people's posts in regards to this writing prompt challenge and I'd love to see some more!

Please feel free to comment on the original post or this one to make sure I see it as I will be picking my favourites from the month of October. I was hoping to find one for every prompt. Do one or do them all! Thanks for reading everyone.
