Through The Glass

Through the Glass
Through the glass I saw you standI saw what you grippedIn your hand A card with halloween greetingsThe dates inside,Set for a meeting I walked through the park that nightI look for youBut your nowhere in sight But there in the corner, dimStood a manAnd you stood by him I walked to you with a smile on my faceBut you were grimYou played your ace You caught me there and held me downThe man your withHe showed a frown The life I had,I lost my gripBut of the torture you causedThis was just  the tip. You beat me upAnd an inch from deathAnd the man in the cornerHe said with stealth "That quite enough"His voice was deepI tried to begWhat came out was "squeak" He stood and smiledHis hand held mineI lay there limpFor quite a time At dawn the man,He turned to youI saw your fear,It showed right through You said to him"Now where's my pay?"He replied softly"If you may, Our contract,It has just begunThis is not the only one" You look quite puzzledBut I just smiled The sun was risingWith my powerThis would be my finest hour. I jumped and slashed at your face,I killed you both with power and grace. While I walked awayYou begged for mercy I bent by youYour face was smashedI whispered with my final lash "The lesson I hope you learned today:To kill a demon, there is no way." -Prettyrose
