it
was a steady drumming
it
pounded in my head
reverberating
off the walls
didn't
stop got louder instead
I
couldn't sleep
my
nerves were shredded apart
slowly
driven insane
by
the beating of a heart
I
was quick
I'd
even say humane
drugged
him unconscious
then
bashed in his brain
though
barely breathing
I
would have swore he was dead
with
a spoon I dug out his heart
the
pounding still heard in my head
I'm
tortured by that heartbeat
its
constant echos in my ears
I
recalled tearing it out
still
have it after all these years
