IT

  Its taken over,
  Its all there is now,
  He isn't there anymore,
  It's not him looking at me,
  It's the bad thing,
  And I'm scared,
  So scared,
  And all alone,
  What am I meant to do?
  He used to care about me so much,
  But now I'm not sure at all,
  In fact I'm terrified,
  He's not my brother anymore,
  That's what daddy says,
  And I know what he says is true,
  Because that's not my brother in there,
  It's the bad thing,
  It's not human,
  It's an animal,
  And it's ready to tear me apart,
  What am I meant to do?
  I've tried to get to the safe place,
  But it's like somethings blocking my way,
  What am I meant to do?
  Me and him,
  We used to be so close,
  Now I can't even look at him,
  He's tied up in the cellar,
  Daddy says we're safe,
  Has he not noticed how frail those ropes are?
  How close they are to snapping?
  Because I've noticed and it scares me,
  But still I'm forced to go down there,
  To feed him everyday,
  I smell the stench,
  I see the blood,
  And I feel like screaming,
  What am I meant to do?
