Lost in the woods
Look left, right
He shouldn't be here
At this time of night
But it's perfect timing
For my sweet revenge
I tried it once
But killed another
His SIGNIFICANT other
To lure him into my torturous trap
I hummed a tune he had heard me sing
Not too long ago
He starts to run
But a bad way for him
I leap, Pin him on the ground
The terror in his eyes excites me
But I spare no energy, emotion
Instead I say
"I've killed a million petty souls, but I couldn't kill you."
Now laying in his open casket
Eyes lacking luster
I remember watching the light fade away
They all mourn
I sit atop a hill
Looking down at them
Pain still in my heart...
I laugh
