• A silent, cool breeze flows through the town
    Leaves rustle on the branches extended out above the ground
    Mist from the morning dew rises from deep in the forest
    Birds chirp out from high above in a peaceful chorus
    Wind takes in a deep breath
    Birds fly away, leaving not one soft tune left
    Quietness fills the empty town
    A stench of death gradually lurks around
    Fog suddenly thickens, for the bare eye cannot see through
    A feeling inside sickens, this feeling is far from new
    The fog disperses, that face becomes very clear
    I knew of this face, it struck me with fear
    My eyes gazed upon this face
    This horrible past memory, I could not replace
    But who, who I say, who could I blame?
    I cannot forget, not this unspeakable pain
    How did this begin, you may ask
    It just happened all so fast
    I never dreamed of this dismay
    I never felt any sorrow, until that dreadful day…

    …As bright and energetic I may have appeared
    No one else knew the troubles I sought out that year
    Everyone seemed to think I was happy and satisfied
    But they were wrong, I was horrified
    Each night I cried while I was sleeping
    Each day I spent my time always weeping
    I hid my emotions, I threw them aside
    I wanted to tell someone, I honestly tried
    Yet when I finally stood up and spoke out
    No one understood what I was talking about
    Then, that unfaithful day arrived
    That beast, that ghastly monster came into our lives
    She was ruthless, no care in the world
    That nightmare, who stole that poor little girl
    I plead, I wept, but my efforts became relentlessly distressing
    Days and weeks passed, my struggles were upsetting
    I could not hold on to my dear friend
    Her innocent memories came to an end
    She became the very thing I sought out to flee from
    But her sweet voice still tries to come
    Back into existence, but her anger took hold
    Lies forced upon her, made her cold
    Her heart turned into ice
    Everything she once loved would soon be sacrificed
    That monster, that horrible beast stole my beloved friend
    I ached in many places, I just could not comprehend
    Why did you take her life?
    You took her and killed her spirit with that bloody knife
    And now you return
    With fire in your eyes that continuously burn
    You hideous, ugly troll
    You come back wanting another soul
    I will not and shall not allow this to arise
    You will be destroyed, as well as your demise…

    …The shadow stood still during that unpleasant night
    Still frozen, I could not look away without a fight
    I refuse to be her victim, be apart of this endless game
    No won will win; it will only bring a great deal of shame
    The shadow suddenly jolted out and sprang into the air
    I fell back, I screamed, but my eyes still stared
    The cold ground brought a chill down my spine
    Or was that caused by the monster who shouted out a loud wine
    I could not move, so I closed my eyes
    I heard a soft voice, filled with lies
    “You will never win; you will die like the rest.”
    Shocked and confused, my emotions became a mess
    I opened my eyes, overwhelmed with fear
    But all I saw was blackness so close, so near
    My own face in a mirror…
