Ingredients:
1 small child
1 evil monster
1 dark corner
1 whole heart

1 lb. touches
1 cup pain
2 lbs. tears
2 tsp. hate
4 tsp. screams
3 tsps. loneliness
dash of frowns

Directions:
Mix together small child
plus evil monster
place in dark corner

Crack open the heart

Slowly blend in

Set this aside
wait for a while

two teaspoons screams
Mix in touches
add loneliness
sift in frowns

Remove all trust

Fear was created
this kitchen of nightmares
a tormented child
a soul lost to all
