Heart of a Pumpkin
The light is on
In the heart of a pumpkin
The center is fresh
The middle carries a doom
Within its known creepiness
The beating nature
Of the inside’s confines
Flickers with a candle
The groveling heard
Increased with each footstep
A quirky smile given
The Jack-O-Lantern brings fear
To the people that pass by
No matter the pain
An individual my possess
It won’t compare to this
