"I hate you, you know."
She looks up.
In shock.
"Why then? I'm everything you always wanted."
"your everything I hate."
She reflects my icy stare.

A spider walks on.

"Your dead you know, you drowned for an eternity..."
I remember,
Slamming my fist into her face,
Shattering glass,
Her expression.

Cold laughter sounds,
As she comes from behind
"you can't kill me, you know."
Holding me under.
She speaks,
Unheeded by the water,
"you made me, I own you."
We rise,
Breathless.

-Drip-

"What's that?"
She demaneds answers I lack.

I stare at the spider

"I don't know."
"It's driving me mad."
"your not already?"
I reply with an innocent smile...
"Don't smart off you impertinent bitch."
The slap feels like fire
"I am NOT mad."

-Drip-

"Aren't you?"
"Stop it! Your dead!"

-Drip_Drip-

We sink,
Water,
Deadly ink,
She falls away...
I_fall....Away.

And the spider finishes its journey across the eyeball of a long rotting corpse....
