Violets are blue…
There’s always that moment in your life when you feel like your whole world is crumbling, falling around you and tearing away everything you hold dear.
Your blood is red…
Mine was just different than everyone else’s.
If you just let me in…
We never know when that life-altering moment will happen, but most of us dread it our entire lives. We might be searching for it, everywhere, trying in vain to know when it will happen, how it will happen, how it will affect us… if we can stop it… but we can’t know. And no matter what we do, it’s inevitable.
I’ll toy with your head…
“Noah… you’re glowing,” Ash said, an odd expression on their pale face. They brushed their soft, jet black hair out of their face and stared at me. They looked like… something was off.
“Well I’m flattered by the compliment, but Ash, you have a girlfriend, and I’m pretty sure that you’re monogamous,” I said in response.
“No- that’s not what I meant- Noah, you’re literally glowing,” Ash replied. “Y-you’re green, for f---’s sake!”
What…? I scrambled to get my phone from the back pocket of my jeans and flipped to the camera app. Switching the camera from portrait mode to selfie mode, so that it was facing me, I stopped dead.
“Well… now that I see myself in a mirror, I understand what you’re talking about… maybe it was from that weird drink in my lunch…?”
“Weird drink? Noah, what the hell are you talking about? You didn’t mention that to me.”
“My step-mom makes me a lunch packet everyday, and this time there was a weird drink in it. I didn’t think anything of it, I just thought it was her trying to force one of her crazy diet ideas on me.”
“Okay, well I don’t think that’s what’s going on…”
Teehee, hi Noah.
The ground felt like it was trembling as I heard that voice. The voice that didn’t seem to come from anyone around me. The voice that was high-pitched, maybe feminine, and anything but soothing. It almost sounded like a horror doll, or something related to that.
I stumbled, shivering. The person (or thing) that the voice belonged to? I could hear them breathing. The breaths were small and quick, and I knew that if they were a person standing by me, the breaths would sound very quiet… But they didn’t. Because they were in my head, or maybe they were breathing right into my ear. The breathing was sharp, and it sounded oddly detailed.
Noah, what’s wrong? I just want to be with you… I’m lonely… I want to play… play with you. Can you be my new toy, Noah? Pretty please? I became tired of my previous one, they were too… resistant. But I doubt you’ll fight back as hard…
The last sentence’s end was followed by a disturbing chuckle. Light and creepy. Squeaky and lethal. I didn’t know what to make of it.
But I knew I needed help. Was anyone else hearing this voice? Anyone? I couldn’t be the only one, right?
And by this point, Ash had realized that something internal was going on with me.
“Noah? You okay there, buddy?” They asked cautiously. I leaped forward and grabbed my friend by the shoulders, tears beginning to form in the very corners of my grey-blue orbs.
“Help me, Ash… The voice… It’s- It’s scaring me… I d-don’t want to be a toy, please… I don’t know what to do..” I whispered, begging Ash for help.
“Noah… there’s no voice. You need to calm down, here- sit down and I’ll get you some water. Does that sound good…?”
Noah… please answer me. I don’t enjoy being ignored… It makes me sad. And I don’t like being sad. You wouldn’t want to see me when I’m sad anyways…
“I DON’T WANT TO BE YOUR TOY! NOW JUST f---ING LEAVE ME ALONE, WHOEVER YOU ARE!”
Aw, but I was very much looking forward to playing with you. Are you sure you don’t want to be my toy? It’s fun, I promise. I’ll only torture you if you misbehave… but you’ll be a good boy for me, won’t you, Noah?
“Noah! Are you okay? Can you hear me? Noah? Damnit, Noah please, listen to me!” Ash screamed, seemingly panicked beyond comprehension. They were gripping onto me, basically carrying all of my weight as I slumped down on them, losing my ability to use my muscles.
But Ash’s voice was completely drowned out as the mysterious voice placed me into some sort of trance. As the world, slowly and excruciatingly, slipped away from me, all I could see was a distorted black haze, all I could smell was an odd, sickly-sweet smoke-like scent, and all I could hear was that eerie, spine-chilling voice, singing a tune that I didn’t quite know how to make out.
That is, until the voice of the mysterious being suddenly forced its way through and up my throat, the words coming out of my own mouth.
“Violets are blue… Your blood is red… If you just let me in… I’ll toy with your head... You can be my precious toy… The miniature doll at my disposal… I don’t think I’ll ever let you go… Don’t dare refuse my dear proposal…” -
