Here I stay dormant
In my lair-your brain
lashing my tail
erasing memories
forever waiting
to terrorize

roam your mind
destroy your hopes
burn your desires
desiccate reality
voraciously devour
your energy

induce nightmares
spew unwanted fears
scramble thoughts
induce prying eyes
demonically destruct
your authentic
inner self

attempts to slay me
are always futile
white knights attack
diversive plans
scratch my scales
will not kill

my flames of anguish
your muffled cries
guarded loneliness
possession of you
my conquest of
your life
