"Tomato Soup"

Candy apple-red sweets and treats. Mm… delicious!
Heartbeats go faster
Screams get louder
Laughter goes higher

Silent metal, shinned and cleaned.
Cuts and scrapes. Slice and slash.
Ringing metal, dull and dirty.

No words.
No noise.

I’m sorry, I meant no harm.
It was all fun, just games, right?
Talk to me. Listen to me.
ANSWER. ME.

“Farewell, dearest love.”
