Two young loves get more than just their date night. |
Parked Upon a midnight clear Full moon shining bright Two loves held each other close Hearts pounding with fright Bodies were entwined Minds occupied by things A scratching noise there was The kind nails on paint will bring “What was that?” she said “I don’t know,” he replied “Are you scared?” she asked He stayed silent, rather than lie He grabbed for his phone A couple taps, there was light He swept the area outside There was nothing in his sight “I’d best be getting you home.” She hurried to agree The engine roared to life Headlights illuminated the tree It stood ghastly and tall Branches twisted and bare But for one prone body Swinging in the air Breath was drawn to scream But no noise was emitted Limbs frozen, hearts lurched A gruesome crime committed GO NOW, drive! Their senses all on fire Throw the car in reverse BAM! BANG! Blown tire Who cares? Just get going! Forward, hit the gas Drive it on the rim This breath could be your last A figure by the road Body draped in black Red eyes blazing hate Face haggard and slack It pulls back an axe Takes aim at the car Swings as they rush by The town isn’t far The rearend fishtails Down the road they go Too scared to look back Death awaits, they know So, it was they arrived Both crying and shaking To spit out their story It’s true! We’re not faking! Eyes roll in disbelief Knowing glances abound Their state of undress Little doubt to be found They’re making it all up! Teens scared in the dark There’s no real murderer It’s all a great big lark Until they see their car Rim ruined beyond repair Driver’s side marred A huge axe buried there |
