Human Toys

She grabs her keys, her coat, her bag And walks toward the door Today is done, the night is soon She closes up the store Walking fast towards her car She senses something near Looking back she sees someone Her heart now pumps with fear Footsteps now advance her way Their pace seems hard and fast Running now to find her car Before this days her last What she doesn't seem to know He's moved her car away She's now become what he does call A nice and easy prey He grabs her swiftly from behind And throws her to the ground The impact of this knocks her out This poor girl has been found He takes his time to end her life This power he enjoys For every person he does kill Are only human toys

Lovely and disturbing.the last line is a knockout. Unique ly written with a pervasive gloom.
