Silent Hill: Dismember The Days

Poem 19: Eileen, The Neighbor With A Decay

Noxious, little flies swarm my house.

I'm a living reign of terror.

Negligent, alarming larva diet on louse.

I can see his body in there!

A stiletto peril eyes my injury.

I flirted with lifeless fog.

A prompt dines with animosity.

I lost my love in smog!

Drench me in your impaired delay.

My time is turning defunct.

Can't you tell I'm wasting away?

I am full of wane and out of luck!

He tries to hold me. His touch is dainty.

And his words are attempted comfort. This, however, will remain to hurt.

I'm a dying, degenerated mortal.

His intentions are late.

And his inanimate form goes through a weeping portal.

So, I sit and wait.

I sit…just a transparency of Eileen, the neighbor with a decay.

END: POEM NINETEEN

This one was somewhat difficult. I like it, but I feel I made it too vague. I like making my poems mysterious and use a lot of metaphors, similes, or just an indirect message, but this one was very well secretive. I based it on the fact that the more wounded she gets the more 'decayed' she appears. I figured this out when playing the Forest World the 2nd time around and finding myself constantly killed by Walter. So instead of waiting for her to catch up I just left her there until I collected all of the limbs. I went back for her to find that she had gotten slower and more useless. I hate it when in video games you need to baby sit. Anyway, henceforth this poem was born!

Hope you enjoy it! I did. Thank you!
