The Woods

Odd little thing it is, sitting in the wood
Others won't approach it, thinking that I should
As I creep I whisper to myself
"Others wish they would"

Dark complexion, unblinking burning eyes
It sees through all there lies
As I creep I think to myself
"I hopes it hears their cries"

The villagers cringe in fear
Closer I draw near
A snapping twig disturbs its rest
and returns a sinister sneer

I feel a chill, a darkened light
as the demon takes flight
I cannot run, I cannot crawl
even with all my might

Such an evil little thing I found sitting in the wood
The other fail to help me, as I think they should
To look away is what I want
Only that,  I wish I could...
