Eyes Tell Stories

Eyes Tell Stories

The werewolf stands there,
The only thing it does is stare. 
A monster there in its eyes,

It stalks closer through the brush,
The wildlife around becomes hushed.
A night reflected in its eyes.

You hear a harsh growl echo,
The fangs of the werewolf show.
The menace increases in its eyes.

I turn my back from the danger,
Then appears a mysterious stranger. 
Sadness is seen in his eyes.
