Terrified By a Light House

The wind is cathartic Makes her feel loved Reminds her of her childhood She sees the lighthouse A place that terrified her during her youth For it is where her uncle lived She knew better than to get too close Feeling his pedophilic tendencies Almost before he knew they were there She suspected he was the Lighthouse killer And possibly this was the lighthouse She tiptoed past quickly Even though he was long gone, There was an evilness about this place She heard the screams of young women every time she passed it.
