Olly Olly Oxen Free!
Olly olly oxen free. Hide and seek is over. I won. Why won't
you appear? Death is no deterrent.
I hear your final words. Nightmares that haunt asleep or
awake. You said you'd always love me. I remember your lovely whisper as blood
gushed from my first slash on your delicate throat.
You even said you'd forgive me before my blade sank deep
into your heart. And as I covered my body with your blood, you promised to
always be mine. Forever and always, that's what you vowed.
Did you lie? Have you deceived me? Where are you, my love?
