Inches

inches 

inched up like a spider 

crawled up the skin 

trickled up the spine 

shivered the quiet 

awoken the blinds 

loud screams 

a flicker of a lamp 

a strangers footprint meshed into the carpet 

a heated demon breathed into the air 

became thick 

her hands reached to her neck and he whisper 

hollowed and empty 

the way he breathed 

into her ear 

as he curled his words 

around her name 

made it sound like silk and wine 

the walls got smaller 

the pushed closer 

she suffocated 

in the need 

to go 12 inches 

deep in her soul 

she begged for mercy

she shuttered 

at the crack 

of the door 

she wavered 

at the light 

walking 

in through 

the 

crack 

of 

the 

door 

she 

had 

locked 

she 

was 

only 

inches 

away 

from ..........

12 inches deep in desire
