Inside the belly of a beast

"Do you think that this will last?"

Inside the belly of a beast


 "Do u love me? "
 The question haunts her fairytale everyday
As it builds its momentum
And more questions remain


Like a princess picking flowers
She plucks each thought that crosses her mind
She transforms them into doubt
And created a hole instead of a heart


Inside the hole, there lives a ferocious beast
Who just wanted to be fed
Little by little it gnaws on her It ate on her remains
The beast grows strong, But deadens her


"Do you love me?"
"Do I make you happy?"
"Do you think that this will last?"
 The questions are a whirlpool now It clouds her eyes as she yells
 "I'll know the truth, for this, I vow"


She yearns what it means as they embrace
But her agile hands keeps looking for clues, As if his body is a maze
She longs to have the answer as they kiss,
But her serpentine tongue keeps searching for his every crevice


So when the day the beast got out
She looked for him and ripped his heart
To look inside, she believe, she will get her answer
 It got to beat only once
But she remembered what her name looks like
​inside his heart forever after
