bloodstains

bloodstains on the carpet
silence
no one hears
screams in the night
her exquisite agony
no one hears
calls for help
no answer

the night pierced
a full moon
shining on
desolation
and agony
screams no one hears

blood dripping
slowly
to the threadbare
carpet
that she hated
dark stain
no one to hear
her steps
she stumbles
on the carpet
one last time

the razorblade falls
to the floor...the
threadbare carpet
that isnt there
no moon
no stain
no razorblade
silence....then
a scream half heard
stifled
as she wakes up
with bloodstains
on the bed
