In the Abandoned House

Dark corner, musty air
Fled to edge of reach
Here he comes
Wicked glint in his eye
Reaching for her
Scream to the sky

Window shatters
Floorboard creaks
Fabric bursts
Dust ignites

Bitter end, choking away
Hopeless tears
Here he comes
Through the bright door
Reaching for her
Come to save the day
